Climate Talks
Global climate change, as the most pressing issue facing the planet, merits its own series of IJP talks. In light of recent political developments, it is more important than ever to find resource-independent energy supplies and exceptional solutions to combat the effects of climate change.
The Climate Talks series, funded by the European Climate Initiative (EUKI) in 2020, aims to highlight global trends and facts in the field of climate, energy and sustainability. Journalists have the opportunity to share news and tools across borders and to ask questions to experts and entrepreneurs.
