Perhaps not in the headlines, but unsurprisingly from someone who runs the Institute for European Environmental Policy UK (IEEP UK) I'm going to flag that the environment and climate aren't just important areas for closer working, but considering the common ground in shared aims, a good place to start rebuilding these relations, as I outline in this blog for UK in a Changing Europe https://lnkd.in/erTem9jA With some of the lower hanging fruit outlined in this report https://lnkd.in/enxRYjeK Steve Reed Adam Dyster Griffin Mosson Labour Climate and Environment Forum Paul McNamee Polly Billington Catherine Fookes Mike Buckley

Now that the dust is settling after a fraught European Parliament election campaign, and after widespread concerns from #EuropeanGreenDeal supporters on the fate of this flagship framework of laws for the environment and climate are beginning to ease, we can begin to see a little more of what has actually survived and passed officially into law – in the ‘Official Journal’ as Euro-jargon calls it – and what has not – yet. From a UK perspective, this flurry of EU environment and climate law making means that a large amount of significant legal and policy divergence has now fully emerged.
