What is the European Climate Pact?
The Climate Pact is an opportunity for people, communities and organisations to participate in climate action across Europe:
- learn about climate change
- develop and implement solutions
- connect with others and maximise the impact of these solutions
As part of the European Green Deal, the Pact aims to become a lively space to share information, debate and act on the climate crisis, and offer support for a European climate movement to grow and consolidate.
As our community grows, so will the scope of the Pact’s activities. Be sure to check in regularly to find out about our latest developments.
