We’re at a global turning point.

Escalating conflict, climate chaos & fractured geopolitics are real risks—but not inevitable.

The EU must lead with courage: champion a just, green transition rooted in democracy, solidarity & the rule of law.

We can shape our future.

Environmental law should be more than just words on a page 🖊️ They were designed to protect people and the environment they live in, and yet each day EU governments are failing to apply them, despite approving them in the first place! Find out why 👇
What good is environmental law if it's not applied? And whose job is it to hold nations to account when they fail to apply the laws they themselves put in place?

Guardian of the treaties or neglectful custodians?
