What is the European Climate Pact?
The European Climate Pact is a movement of people united around a common cause, each taking steps in their own worlds to build a more sustainable Europe. Launched by the European Commission, the Pact is part of the European Green Deal and is helping the EU to meet its goal to become climate-neutral by 2050.
Everyone has a place in the Pact. You can get involved whether you are just starting out on your climate action journey or already working to make a difference in your world. You can take part as an individual or as an organisation – for example, a city, a community or an association.
Ready to take your climate action further? Gather friends, family, colleagues and neighbours for a climate action activity. Our practical guides make hosting easy – whether it’s a cosy sustainable meal at home or a lively climate quiz at your favourite venue.
