INVITATION: Prague Climate Talks: European Green Deal: will it bring structural change?
Topic of the tenth debate of our project Prague Climate Talks will be "European Green Deal: will it bring structural change?" The debate will take place on Tuesday, May 12th at 4 pm online in Czech language here.
The EU Green Deal should be the guiding framework for the European Union to reaching climate neutrality by 2050. It is an ambitious package, but it is yet to be seen whether the EU will achieve to turn its vision into reality and bring about the necessary structural transformation to low-carbon economy. What are the key tenets of the EU Green Deal? What sort of investment will the EU Green Deal entail? What implications will it have for sectors such as energy, industry, agriculture or transport?
Confirmed speakers:
- Naděžda Johanisová, Department of Environmental studies, Faculty of Social Sciences MU
- Jan Freidinger, Campaign manager, Greenpeace Czech Republic
- Lukáš Víšek, Member of Cabinet responsible for greening the Common agrucultural policy, Member of Cabinet of Executive Vice-President Frans Timmermans, European Commission
The debate will be moderated by Kateřina Davidová, EUROPEUM Institute for European Policy.
