Euranet Plus Green Deal podcast

The European Union wants to go green. In December 2019, the European Commission unveiled its Green Deal, its roadmap to making the EU economy sustainable and thus achieving its end goal: to become the first climate-neutral continent by 2050. But what does the Green Deal mean for each of us? As citizens, as consumers, what habits will we need to change to make our day-to-day lives more sustainable? What compromises will we have to make? And what measures can we expect from Europe and our national public authorities to encourage these changes? By delving into daily life across the EU in this Green Deal podcast, our network of radio correspondents provides insight and answers to the challenges facing the bloc.

The schoolchildren of today will most likely be directly affected by climate change and will have to deal with its impacts first-hand. If we, the current custodians of the Blue Planet, fail to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and stick to the 1.5 degree target, future generations will pay the price for our inaction. However, awareness of these issues among young people themselves remains distinctly patchy in the EU. Educating children about climate change is all about finding the right balance: how to introduce the issues without generating anxiety. Find out in today's episode.
