Thank you Jessika Roswall for the commitment to reconciling competitiveness with sustainability, and for supporting the 1st review of the implementation of the 🌍Biodiversity Framework next year at COP17. We need a clear picture of where we stand and where to strengthen action.

Biodiversity loss & climate change must be tackled in tandem. They share a pervasive driver: unsustainable material extraction fuelled by the prevalent linear economy model. By aligning policy and finance across silos, EU Environment can promote the🌍transition to circular economies.

The plastic pollution is choking our planet, harming ecosystems & the climate. Plastic waste clogs rivers, pollutes the ocean & endangers wildlife. This #WorldEnvironmentDay, let’s end the scourge of plastic pollution together & build a better future for us all.

The ocean… 🌊💙 sustains life, regulates climate, hosts biodiversity, buffers storms, produces oxygen, holds untold wonder. Yet, we’ve polluted its depths and pushed it to the brink. On #WorldOceanDay and every day, let’s act to #SaveOurOcean.
