The EESC - The Voice of the European Civil Society at COP21

This brochure was prepared by EESC for the COP21. The EESC wanted COP21 to be a major milestone to place the international community on the right track to limit global warming to a below 2°C compared to preindustrial levels, while developing appropriate tools to face the adverse effects of climate disruptions.

However the EESC’s principal message was to strongly advocate in favour of full recognition, involvement and empowerment of civil society organisations, including businesses, trade unions, NGOs and more generally citizens, who are the ultimate drivers of change. A successful implementation of ambitious climate policies will need the full participation and commitment of civil society at large.
