Webinar: Climate Neutrality and the Transport Sector - the Road to Zero [3]
[3]
Cars, planes, trains and boats make up about 25% of EU emissions, and yet,
transport is one of the most stubborn sectors -- emissions have not been
decreasing, and in fact have continued to go up (EEA, 2020 [4]).
We need a major shift in the transport sector to reach climate neutrality.
But what do we need to do to reach net-zero? What challenges do we face and
how can we tackle them?
Join us for a panel presentation and discussion about what needs to happen
in the transport sector to put Europe on track to meeting our climate
neutrality goals.

The EU is close to finalising a trade agreement with Argentina, Brazil,
Paraguay and Uruguay - or Mercosur.
The deal would be a disaster for climate and human rights. It is estimated
to accelerate deforestation in the region by 25% annually. This trade
policy is not compatible with the European Green Deal and the Paris
Agreement!
