Last year, we showed everyone what Europeans can achieve when we rally around a common mission.
Despite suddenly facing a threat to our security, energy supply, economy and values, we managed to deliver on our ambitious goals.
️We stood firmly with Ukraine against Russia’s brutal war, helped European citizens & businesses facing high energy bills, accelerated the clean energy transition to end our dependency on Russian fossil fuels and more...

Reading the NASA Roadmap to Ocean Worlds (about Europa, Enceladus, Titan & other solar system bodies with oceans), and struck by the program aims: "and ultimately understand any life we find". It makes it sound the only point is to find life. But that's just not true - investigating our solar system helps us understand our own planet & context. It's entirely worth doing for its own sake! (although, we do have some urgent Earth problems we should probably prioritise). #Ocean #SolarSystem
RT @EU_Commission: We are highly dependent on imports of critical raw materials, often from single country suppliers.
The proposal will:
🔹 Set clear priorities for action
🔹 Strengthen raw materials supply chains
🔹 Increase circularity and sustainability
🔹 Invest in research and innovation.

RT @EU_Commission: From solar panels to batteries, we want Europe to produce at least 40% of the net-zero technologies it needs by 2030.
The Net-Zero Industry Act we proposed today will create the conditions to scale up their production and make Europe a clean tech leader ↓

Today we have proposed our:
➡Net-Zero Industry Act to boost #cleantech
➡Critical Raw Materials Act to secure the green and digital transition
Both are part of our #EUGreenDeal Industrial Plan and will help 🇪🇺 become climate neutral.

Critical raw materials like lithium, cobalt & nickel are crucial for the green & digital transition.
We need them for wind turbines, electric cars, batteries & electronics.
Our new measures show how circular economy boosts their security of supply:
