The #EU #GreenDeal is being degraded to meaninglessness & this needs to #stop.

Together we can make it happen. With colleagues I wrote an open letter saying that science is supporting the Green Deal and it needs to be reinstated with ambition.

Climate Change:

It's real.

It's us.

It's serious - and already dangerous.
