Eiropas zaļais kurss

Eiropas Komisija 2019. gada 11. decembrī nāca klajā ar Eiropas zaļo kursu, ar ko pastiprina ES apņemšanos risināt ar klimatu un vidi saistītas problēmas, kas ir šīs paaudzes galvenais izaicinājums. Eiropas zaļā kursa mērķis ir pārveidot ES par modernu, resursefektīvu un konkurētspējīgu ekonomiku, nodrošinot, ka

  • līdz 2050. gadam ir pielikts punkts siltumnīcefekta gāzu neto emisijām;
  • ekonomikas izaugsme ir atsaistīta no resursu izmantošanas;
  • novārtā nav atstāts neviens cilvēks un neviens reģions.

Lai ieviestu Eiropas zaļo kursu, ES īsteno visaptverošu iniciatīvu kopumu, tostarp politikas un likumdošanas priekšlikumus, kā arī finansēšanas instrumentu izstrādi un modernizāciju.

EESK, uzsverot ciešo saikni starp zaļo kursu un sociālo taisnīgumu, ir aicinājusi īstenot tā saukto zaļo un sociālo kursu. Ir svarīgi uzklausīt visu ieinteresēto personu viedokli, lai veicinātu ilgtspējīgus un konkurētspējīgus nākotnes uzņēmumus veselīgā vidē.

Eiropas zaļajā kursā liels uzsvars likts uz investīcijām, kā arī zaļas un ilgtspējīgas pārkārtošanās finansēšanu. Zaļais kurss ir līdzeklis, kā Eiropai pārvarēt Covid-19 pandēmiju. Eiropas zaļā kursa finansējums ir viena trešdaļa no 1,8 triljoniem eiro, kas NextGenerationEU atveseļošanas plāna ietvaros paredzēti ieguldījumiem, un ES septiņu gadu budžeta līdzekļi. Finansēšanas iespējas ir paplašinātas, lai krīzi izmantotu kā iespēju veikt pārmaiņas Eiropas nākotnes interesēs.

EESK loma ir būtiska Eiropas zaļā kursa iniciatīvu un darbību īstenošanas uzraudzībā. EESK sagatavo atzinumus un rīko pasākumus (sk. izvēlni šīs lapas kreisajā pusē), lai nodrošinātu, ka ES iestādes ņem vērā organizētas pilsoniskās sabiedrības viedokli un ka zaļā kursa iniciatīvas atbilst ekonomiskajiem un sociālajiem apstākļiem un pilsoniskajām norisēm uz vietas.

Transversālā un visaptverošā rakstura dēļ Eiropas zaļo kursu aplūko visas EESK specializētās nodaļas un CCMI.

    The coronavirus outbreak will have a deep and negative impact on the achievement of the SDGs and the objectives of the European Green Deal. For this reason, the EESC insists on the need to face this urgent threat as soon as possible and focus our recovery efforts without undue delay on the SDGs and the Green Deal. The Sustainable Europe Investment Plan (SEIP) is the first comprehensive policy measure to fulfil very ambitious targets of carbon neutrality until 2050 in line with the EU Green Deal. While saluting the Green Deal's ambitions, the EESC regrets the lack of consistency with the budgetary allocation within the next Multiannual Financial Framework and also expresses its doubts about the effectiveness of climate mainstreaming in all EU programmes and calls on the Member States to involve civil society organisations in pushing for climate-proof EU spending.

    The transition to a low-carbon economy is the EU's goal and obligation and the EU committed itself to implement this transition in a socially just and cost-effective manner. It is thus important to examine all the feasible ways of financing climate neutrality, and possibly find new and innovative financing models in the near future.

  • On 2 May 2023, the Liberal Professions Category of the EESC held the 7th edition of the Day of the Liberal Professions in Brussels. This annual event brings together key players from Europe's liberal professions, as well as key policymakers from the European Parliament, the European Commission and the Member States. This year's event was entitled Fostering skills and delivering the Green Deal.

  • The transition towards a low-carbon economy is a fundamental priority. But the green transition will fail without social dialogue. This represented a general agreement among the discussions during the meeting, particularly if climate policies were not made also socially sustainable and did not take into account the needs and worries of working people, of citizens. Key points raised during the debates included the fact that real wages were decreasing with the soaring inflation, the complementarity of fighting climate change and protecting social rights, and the fundamental role of involving Trade Unions in the design and implementation of policies within the Green Deal.

  • Academia, local civil society organisations, representatives of regional and national authorities and members of the European Economic and Social Committee met at a conference in Dolni Vítkovice, a former industrial area for coal mining and steel production in Ostrava, on 11 October 2022.

  • In its resolution on the involvement of organised civil society in the implementation and monitoring of the National Recovery and Resilience Plans (NRRPs) the European Economic and Social Committee calls for clear rules to effectively involve social partners and civil society organisations in the Member states' strategies to bring the economy back on track.
