Sustainability is about meeting the present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, embraced by all UN Member States in 2015, offers a common roadmap for global well-being, featuring 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that demand collaborative action from all nations, developed and developing, to address poverty, improve health and education, reduce inequality, foster economic growth, combat climate change, and protect our environment. 

The European Union aims to be global leader that strives to achieve climate neutrality by 2050, representing an economy where greenhouse gas emissions are balanced by removals or offset measures. This goal is central to the European Green Deal and aligns with the EU’s dedication to global climate action as outlined in the Paris Agreement.
