This vote took place a week after the release of the IPCC report, which concluded that any further delay in global action will miss a brief and rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a liveable and sustainable future for all.

Commission proposal to label gas & nuclear as sustainable tantamount to greenwashing

Sneaking dirty energy onto a list of sustainable investments is the worst kind of greenwashing. We told the EU Commission that we do not want their dirty present.
