On 5-6 October, EU Leaders will be gathering in Granada, Spain, to start off the process of defining the Union’s general political directions and priorities for the years to come. Central to this process is the adoption of a declaration at their informal Summit.
Less than a week removed from the declaration’s adoption, it has come to NGOs’ attention that the current draft text falls woefully short in recognising the pressing threats posed by the runaway climate crisis, the alarming loss of ecosystems and biodiversity, and pollution.
In this letter, the EEB, together with Birdlife Europe, WWF Europe, CAN Europe and Transport & Environment urge EU Leaders to include a clear commitment in the Granada Declaration to truly tackle the climate and environment crises and avoid these from undermining our futures.
