The United States needs to change its thinking about the transition to clean energy and adapting to Climate Change.
We need to care for people.
We need to show people we care.
We need to demonstrate we will include everyone in the new energy economy.

Last week, the 🇪🇺 Parliament is said yes to #justtransition, with over 400 MEPs calling on the Commission to back a #JustTransitionDirective!
Only by prioritising just transition can Europe deliver coal phaseout and a future built on sustainability, climate action, and shared prosperity.

BREAKING: European Parliament backs a Just Transition Directive ✅
The EU must equip itself with strong tools to anticipate & manage change while building cohesion.
Its for workers like Rainer that the Commission must now move ahead with a Just Transition Directive as part of the Quality Jobs Act.

Workers and their trade unions must be in a position to manage change, rather than suffer its consequences.
Facing industrial layoffs, Commission must now bring forward just transition measures
The Commission must move ahead with a Just Transition Directive as part of the Quality Jobs Act, following the backing today by the European Parliament of measures to prevent avoidable job losses. In times of geopolitical and trade uncertainties, the EU must equip itself with strong tools to anticipate and manage economic change while building internal cohesion.

As well as avoiding job losses, workers also stand to benefit from a right to training during working time to ensure they are prepared for the quality jobs of the future.

The overwhelming support, with 420 MEPs voting in favour (67%) of the report on a ‘just transition directive in the world of work,’ represents an important step towards greater job security at a time when a wave of company restructuring is underway.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
