We are back with a second season! As we continue to keep our fingers on the pulse of the energy transition, this episode shines a spotlight on a pivotal aspect of the transition process: the implementation itself. With the EU's 'Fit for 55' package setting climate and energy targets for Member States, we turn our attention to how EU member states plan to realise these goals through their National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs).
These plans offer a unique opportunity to align policies with Paris Agreement objectives, requiring Member States to go beyond EU targets. We also explore the potential for citizen involvement, which can infuse democratic principles into climate action. Join us as we dive deep into NECPs, their role in shaping climate action in Europe, and hear from Ana Márquez, a climate and energy officer from SEO/BirdLife, focusing on the case of Spain.
SEO/BirdLife, based in Spain, is a leading environmental organization dedicated to conserving birds and their habitats. Through research, advocacy, and community engagement, they work to protect biodiversity and combat climate change.
