"You may not have thought about it much, and you may not want to. But like it or not, the reality of climate change is going to encroach on our lives, body and soul. Brace yourselves."

"...They want to scare people enough to take the problem seriously but not so much as to make them feel hopeless. At the same time, they want to reassure people that a climate-secure future is possible but only enough to avoid complacency."
Exactly this!

"Allowing ourselves to be emotionally overwhelmed by the threat of climate change is clearly an indulgence we can’t afford ... Which is why folks doing strategic communication on global warming – the UN, green groups, scientists and arguably, the media – tread a very fine line."

Our focus will be on regional cooperation & on #OffshoreRenewableEnergy.
The acceleration of renewables deployment is one of the pillars of the #REPowerEU to end our dependence on Russian fossil fuels.
