Opening plenary session - ECONOMY OF TOMORROW: THE GREEN DEAL AT THE NEW EUROPEAN LEGISLATURE START

Like any far-reaching change, the Green Deal has challenged established interests and views, raising a wide debate.

To intervene in this debate, it is useful, first of all, to know, analyze and evaluate the main measures of the European Green Deal: a set of measures, directives and regulations, generally little known. It is also good, on the various topics, to try to identify the main issues that should be addressed in this new European legislature. With a premise: In the 9th, the European Green Deal helped fuel not only the recovery but also the start of a more sustainable European economy.

The energy and climate transition has, in fact, yielded significant results in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and changing the energy model; well underway is also the path to greater circularity in the economy, and, albeit with greater difficulty, improvements in the protection of Europe's natural capital are proceeding.
