Bridging the East-West Divide on Climate Change
Section
Climate & Environment
Event Description
There is a growing disparity between new and old European member states when it comes to tackling climate change and transitioning to a more sustainable economy. Large scale public and private funding, coupled with lower capital costs for financing clean energy technology, means that most of the investments and supply chains are being concentrated in the bigger Western economies. At the same time, Central and Eastern European countries (CEE) experience some of the biggest economic losses from climate-related extremes.
The Martens Centre webinar aims to address these divisions in light of the implementation of the European Green Deal and the long-term goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.
