As the EU enters a new institutional cycle, CLG Europe is embarking on a mission to shape an ambitious business agenda for the EU.
The role of business is not only to deliver on the implementation of the Green Deal and Fit for 55 package, but also to call on policymakers to strengthen and keep developing a policy framework that will address existing gaps and bring positive outcomes for people, the economy, nature and climate.
Climate action and sustainability can play an important role in enabling the EU to face the climate, nature and energy crises. Political and business leadership towards a climate-neutral and nature-positive economy are more critical than ever. The European Green Deal has outlined a vision where economic benefits, sustainability and competitiveness intersect to meet present and future needs while enabling the EU to be a frontrunner globally. This knowledge hub seeks to provide a business perspective, voice and thought leadership on the priorities of the next European institutions and how to achieve the transition towards a climate neutral, nature positive and prosperous EU.
Over the past years, CLG Europe stood up firmly in its support for the Green Deal and the development of policies enabling businesses to build their leadership and scale up business action on the ground. CLG Europe will continue to work with policymakers to deliver a bright future for the EU with climate action and sustainability at its core.
