On December 3, the Green New Deal for Europe launched its new landmark report, A Blueprint for Europe’s Just Transition.
The publication coincides with the arrival of the new European Commission, which has promised to deliver a “green deal” within its first 100 days (read the leaked contents of that “green deal” here) — an all-together uninspiring vision that we believe is doomed to fail.
The report sets out an alternative vision for a Green New Deal — one that gets Europe to carbon neutrality by 2030 while delivering environmental justice across the continent and around the world. The report also includes a new chapter, Pathways to the Green New Deal for Europe, on the politics to bring this vision to reality.
To accompany the report, we are publishing an open letter to President Ursula von der Leyen — co-signed by Yanis Varoufakis, Bill McKibben, Daniela Gabor Jason Hickel, Ann Pettifor and many many others — taking her to task for the deficits of the so-called “green deal.”
