I’m enjoying chilled @TimmermansEU taking journalists’ questions while leaning casually on the wall after the Environment Council today 😎
I’m also liking his message 🧵

Re “For almost 4 years this was the consensus… these are issues that are of such existential importance that we don’t create a left-right political dynamic on this…”

Re “I hope we can go back to that situation because thankfully, for that, we got #FitFor55 across the line which was quite an achievement.”

Re People have many motivations to fight climate change, says @TimmermansEU.
Often we hear of business or environmental concerns, but it is less common to discuss security reasons for tackling climate change, he says.

🌱VP @TimmermansEU calls upon our responsibility to become good ancestors.
He urges us to listen and take action for nature and #climatechange. With younger generations increasingly involved in these matters, the future could be promising, but only if we act now.
