What is the European Climate Pact?
The European Climate Pact is a movement of people each taking action to help build a cleaner and more resilient Europe.
Launched by the European Commission as part of the European Green Deal, the Pact supports the EU’s goal to become climate-neutral by 2050.
Whether you are just getting started or already driving change in your community or organisation, there’s a place for you in the Pact.
