@JanezPotocnik22 @UNEPIRP @DianeSimiu @AnnMettler @lemaitre_eu @riyongkim 'Economic, social and environmental balance cannot be addressed if we do not address the price signals. In the current economic system, the production capital is overvalued, human capital is undervalued, and natural capital is not valued' @JanezPotocnik22

@JanezPotocnik22 @UNEPIRP @DianeSimiu @AnnMettler @lemaitre_eu @riyongkim 'If trends continue, global material consumption is to double by 2060. We need to move towards dematerialisation and decouple our economy from our resource use. We need to redefine the socio-economic system.' @JanezPotocnik22

@JanezPotocnik22 @UNEPIRP @DianeSimiu @AnnMettler @lemaitre_eu @riyongkim 'Do we have the we need beyond 2030? Research will have to play a big role there. What about ? Have we used it in best way? We should not make bets, locking us in unsustainable solutions. We need to connect with people.' @lemaitre_eu

@JanezPotocnik22 @UNEPIRP @DianeSimiu @AnnMettler @lemaitre_eu @riyongkim 'We need a bold approach to address all these challenges. We face a different reality today and Europe needs to find a way of getting its thinking into the rest of the world.' @AnnMettler

@JanezPotocnik22 @UNEPIRP @DianeSimiu @AnnMettler @lemaitre_eu @riyongkim 'Europe leads in the early stages of innovation, but that's not enough. We need to look at this technology's commercialisation. We need lots of scaling up. That's the only way we can decarbonise. And it needs to happen fast'. @AnnMettler

@JanezPotocnik22 @UNEPIRP @DianeSimiu @AnnMettler @lemaitre_eu @riyongkim 'We need to focus on the demand side of our economy. We rely on imports. What are their impacts? And there is a social side. We need to make those green jobs a reality.' @DianeSimiu
