Well that’s a description which you won’t find in our @EU_Commission press release 😂
RT @KiraTaylor15: Confused about how the EU's joint gas purchasing works? Well, very basically it's like a dating app to match demand with the best supply deal. Here's my explanation 👇 https://www.euractiv.com/section/energy-environment/news/to-buy-or-not-to-buy-europes-joint-gas-purchasing/

"We need to combine the sense of urgency with the understanding that we can still do this. We can still do this! Despair is our biggest enemy. There's no need to fall into despair, but we do need to understand the dimension of the challenge we face today."

"And why aren't we more forthcoming about the reduction of our energy use? Especially the major emitters, the major industrialised countries: there is much, much more that we can do on energy efficiency than we are doing now."

"Should this not be something that we should take to the global level and try to agree on global goals to achieve this: removing [carbon], decarbonizing our energy system? ... the cheapest and fastest way to achieve that, in our view, is through renewables."

"On the transition to renewables, I think we should be able to set global goals. This is a success that nobody expected at this scale. Just take one look at China, and look at what China is doing on the road to renewables. It's amazing, it's inspiring, it really is mind-boggling"

"If we do not do more - the Global Stocktake I think is the clearest indication of it - if we do not do more on mitigation, whatever we do on finance, on adaptation on loss and damage, will fall short of what we need."

"The onus is on the major emitters, on all the major emitters, and they should have an honest talk, within discussions at the G20, about how we achieve that goal."

"I will put a bit more emphasis on this than others have done this morning: there's no way, no way, we're going to achieve any of our goals, if we not do more on mitigation. We need urgently to reduce our emissions."
