About us
Climate Action Network (CAN) Europe is Europe's largest coalition working on climate and energy issues. With over 200 member organisations in more than 40 European countries, representing over 44 million citizens, CAN Europe works to prevent dangerous climate change and promote sustainable climate and energy policy in Europe. The vision of CAN is a world actively striving towards and achieving the protection of the global climate in a manner that promotes equity and social justice between peoples, sustainable development of all communities, and protection of the global environment. CAN Europe empowers civil society organisations to influence the design and development of effective climate change policy in Europe, both in the European Union as well as in its Member States and in European countries outside the EU. CAN Europe is recognised as an established civil society voice in both EU policy and the UN climate negotiations. We work to influence decision-makers at the heart of Brussels while supporting our diverse network of members to campaign from grassroots up to governmental level in Members States. CAN Europe works on a broad range of issues including climate, energy and finance policies, to contribute to the zero carbon transition that should allow us to avoid dangerous climate change. We do that with a great team of experts in the CAN Europe secretariat as well as with hundreds of staff from our member organisations, that engage through working groups, mailing lists, conference calls and our bi-annual General Assemblies.

📉Not just recycle & reuse but REDUCE! Sustainable use of our resources is necessary for improving people’s lives, reducing our dependencies and fighting against the triple planetary crisis. WHEN WE SAY: Maximum material footprint target of 5 tonnes per capita in the EU by 2050. WE MEAN: 🏘️cheaper housing through building less and rehabilitating more 🚌better public transport 💰€200 billion savings yearly with less import needs ⚡️20-30% energy demand reduction 💧lower energy & water bills 🏆Better competitiveness with cost-reduction and minimising risks ➕much more! ➡️ Read more: https://lnkd.in/d3ASSs9J

Our Head of Energy, Cornelia Maarfield spoke with Kira Taylor on why achieving net zero emissions by 2040 in the EU will bring social and economic benefits of up to €1 trillion 💚 💰 This is the pathway carved out in CAN Europe’s newly published #PACscenario for energy – it proves that reaching climate neutrality by 2040 equals lower investment needs (€4.8 trillion less than in the EU’s 2050 energy scenario 😮). Thanks FORESIGHT Climate & Energy for having Cornelia on 🙏 and make sure to give it a listen 👂 https://lnkd.in/dGnWvBfR

📢New Report📢 Climate neutrality by 2040 is possible, but the new EU Commission must act urgently! Today we’re launching our updated civil society-led energy scenario that outlines how the EU can achieve climate neutrality by 2040 and what measures are needed to transition the power, industry, buildings, and transport sectors. According to #PACscenario: 🌱Achieving climate neutrality by 2040 could generate over 1 trillion in co-benefits for the EU by 2030 already ⚡A 100% renewable based energy system is not only possible, but necessary to limit global warming to 1.5°C. This requires rapid decarbonisation, phasing out fossil fuels and significant investments in renewable infrastructure. 🔋Reducing energy demand is crucial for reaching climate neutrality by 2040. This can be achieved through sustainable lifestyles, energy efficiency, innovation and circularity Read the full energy scenario 👇 #EnergyCompass #PACscenario
