Civil society organizations ask the European Union for urgent environmental legislation

SAPO Notícias14 September 2026 at 08:54

Civil society organizations addressed a letter to the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, requesting urgent environmental legislation.

In the letter, the signatories demanded that nature-based solutions be prioritized in the next legislative proposal of the European Climate Resilience Framework.

The organizations also asked Brussels to transform environmental commitments already made into law.

Why this matters

European civil organizations are pressuring the European Commission for the next climate legislation to include and prioritize nature-based solutions, which can directly influence environmental policies that will affect European citizens. This request comes in the context of drafting the European Climate Resilience Framework, a legislative instrument that will define binding EU climate commitments.
