💧 30% of Europeans face water scarcity each year.

Water is a shared resource essential for people, nature, and the economy.

As our #EUDataCrunch show, we've invested over €15 billion in water projects, including:

🚰 Water infrastructure for human consumption
🚰 Water management conservation
🚰 Wastewater treatment

As climate change hits, we are working hard to keep Europe’s water available and clean, while protecting against floods and droughts.

Join us for #EUGreenWeek today and tomorrow.

✅ ✅ More clean technology. Fewer emissions.

Our Emissions Trading Scheme ensures polluters pay for their greenhouse gas emissions and this revenue, through the #InnovationFund, finances the transition to climate neutrality.

By year-end, our Innovation Fund will have secured €6.5 billion for 104 clean tech projects. This has the potential to avoid 470 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions (CO₂e).

Our #EUDataCrunch reflects the success of the ETS over the years.

It shows an industrial plant on bottom-centre and reflecting the increasing amount of money available for Innovation Fund going from 1 billion to 6.5 billion over the years and where we stand today. BY 2023-end, it would help fund 104 clean tech projects. This has the potential to avoid 470 million tonnes of CO₂ greenhouse gases, more than the emissions produced by the current ETS sectors in Belgium in the last 10 years.

🔴 Climate change is here. It is now.

At #COP28, the world needs to come together and agree to drastically reduce emissions.

✔️ We’re pushing for climate ambition, finance, and global energy goals, including:
☀️ tripling global renewable energy capacity by 2030,
⛽ agreeing on phasing out unabated fossil fuels,
⛽ ensuring the fossil fuel consumption peaks ahead of 2030,
📉 radically reduce methane emissions.

Our #EUDataCrunch reflects this critical moment in history

#EUatCOP28 #EUClimateAction

The first slide is titled, “Limiting the temperature rise to 1.5 degrees is critical.# It shows a polar bear on a small iceberg and a graph showing Copernicus data on daily global surface air temperature anomalies. The graph highlights the rising temperatures over the years and is shows the temperatures going beyond the 1.5 degrees threshold for the first time this November.The 2nd slide is titled, “Because above 1.5 degrees, everything changes: more extreme weather, impacts on water availability, food insecurity.  

It also shows a graph of the rise in global mean sea levels highlighting that they have risen +72 millimeters since 2002. The visual also shows a sofa and a lamp half-drowned in water.The 3rd slide talks about the EU leading the green transition. It shows a graph using one of the blades of a wind turbine as the Y-axis and reflects the EU goal to cut emissions by 57% by 2030.The 4th slide says that the EU emits only 7% of global greenhouse emissions, so the world must reduce emissions steadily and move to net-zero by 2050.

🪂 We cannot survive without air– it should be clean.

While air quality has improved in the last two decades, it is still the largest environmental health risk in Europe.

We are reducing the emissions of major pollutants with EU action:

🔹 The EU Ambient Air Quality Directives,
🔹 The #ZeroPollution Action Plan,
🔹 The National Emission reduction Commitments Directive sets commitments for five major air pollutants.

Our #EUDataCrunch takes a closer look at how it will save lives. 👇
 
#CleanAirEU

A visual entitled 'Reducing air pollution in EU saves lives'. It compares the reduction of pollutants from all sectors to the decrease in early deaths between 2005 and 2021. The top three pollutants reduced are Ammonia (-12%) Fine particulate matter (-27%) and Nitrogen oxides (-47%). The main emitting sectors for these pollutants are Agriculture, domestic heating and transport, respectively. The decrease in early deaths was -41% in 2023, forecasted to reach -66% by 2030.

R to @EK_Hrvatska: U 2022. energija vjetra opskrbljivala je 16 % električne energije u EU-u. Ta bi se brojka trebala povećati na 34 % kako bi se postigao cilj za energiju iz obnovljivih izvora do 2030.

RT by @EUErasmusPlus: Mental health matters. And we care.

📊 On #WorldMentalHealthDay, the latest #Eurobarometer shows that young people need more mental health support.

That's why 2000 health professionals will be trained to work in a multi-disciplinary way by 2026. ↓

Mental health matters. And we care.

📊⚠️ On #WorldMentalHealthDay, our #EUDataCrunch shows that young people are not getting the care they need.

To put mental health on par with physical #health, we are launching 20 flagship initiatives and providing €1.23 billion in funding, including:

🔹Training 2000 health professionals in a multi-disciplinary way by 2026

🔸 Dedicating EUR 18 million to tackling stigma and discrimination around mental health.

#EUHealth #HealthUnion

The title reads: Almost 2 in 4 young people in the EU reported unmet needs for mental health care.* *Total surveyed youth in Spring 2022. 

The visual background is a gradient blue that transitions to grey. On the blue part are two headshots of people. On the grey side are two more people whose colouring has been de-saturated, making them appear less bright.  

Underneath, the text reads: Among EU measures, 200 health professionals will be trained to work in a multi-disciplinary way by 2026.

“We have to get rid of dependency on Russian fossil fuels.” — President von der Leyen at #SOTEU 2022.

In the first eight months of the war, we replaced over 70 billion cubic metres of Russian pipeline gas and in 2023, less than 10% of our total gas imports come from Russia.

We’re now working with reliable international partners like 🇳🇴 Norway and the 🇺🇸 United States.

Ahead of #SOTEU 2023, check out our #EUDataCrunch that reflects this considerable change. ↓

#REPowerEU #EuropeanUnion

A visual reflecting the reduction in Russian gas and LNG imports. 

Russian pipeline imports were reduced from 50% in 2021 to 8% in 2023. LNG imports from non-Russian suppliers increased from 54.4 bcm in 2021 to 98.3 bcm in 2022.  

Norway is our main gas supplier, and the United States is our main supplier of LNG.

#StandWithUkraine: How have we supported 🇺🇦 Ukraine this past year?

Since the onset of Russia’s invasion, we have committed €733 million to humanitarian aid programmes.

Our #EUDataCrunch explains the breakdown of the humanitarian assistance provided to 7.9 million Ukrainians by the EU and our partners in 2023.

We will continue to stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes.

What’s next for our Union? To find out, watch President von der Leyen’s #SOTEU address on 13 September 09:00 CEST.

A graph titled ‘A total of 7.9 million Ukrainians have received humanitarian support 
from the EU & other contributors (Jan-June 2023).’

The graph shows the breakdown of 1.1 million receiving protection services, 2.9 million receiving cash assistance, 3.3 million receiving access to clean water, 4 million receiving food services, and 5.6 million 
receiving health interventions or supplies. 

The legend specifies that some people have received several types of support. The graph is complemented by a central photo of an aid worker delivering assistance to a Ukrainian citizen.

How did Europe’s gas and electricity prices fall after the highs of last year?

With the war raging on our continent, we had to take measures to protect people from high #energy prices.

It was the beginning of #REPowerEU plan, which meant:
- increasing gas reserves,
- saving energy consumption,
- purchasing gas jointly,
working with reliable partners like Norway and the United States,
- Increasing the deployment of renewables across the #EU.

Our #EUDataCrunch depicts its singular impact.

A data crunch titled "Evolution of gas & electricity prices." 

It shows energy prices rising until August 2022 – after Russian aggression & supply cuts – and subsequently falling following EU policy response (storage, demand reduction, infrastructure, joint purchasing, prices). 

EU ELECTRICITY wholesale: -84% end Aug-2022 to mid Aug-2023 

EU GAR wholesale: -89% end Aug-2022 to mid Aug-2023
