🆕 Policy Voices Episode | EU Elections Series: Climate Change The European Elections begin in seven days. Friends of Europe has launched a podcast series in which we speak with representatives from five parties to discuss the policy areas that we believe the next mandate must prioritise in order to enact a Renewed Social Contract. Today’s episode covers climate change. We believe that policymakers must balance a dual digital, green transition with the needs of citizens to create a resilient, equitable society. Friends of Europe’s ‘10 Policy Choices for a Renewed Social Contract for Europe’ calls on policymakers to prioritise the acceleration of carbon reduction in order to support this vision for Europe. Today, to discuss this prescient topic, host Catarina Vila Nova is joined by Peter Liese, MEP for the European People's Party, Didrik de Schaetzen, Secretary-General of the ALDE Party, Giacomo Filibeck, Secretary-General of the Party of European Socialists (PES), Simon McKeagney, Head of Communications of The Greens/EFA in the European Parliament and David Lundy, Head of Communications of The Left in the European Parliament. ⤵️ Learn more below.   #PolicyVoices #Voices4Choices #EUElections2024 #ClimateChange

Are you a financial boy scout? No, I mean are you prepared, as the Boy Scout motto states? The financial system of the US, and the world really, is based on the strength of the dollar. And that strength is backed by the credibility of the US as an entity. Looking at current events in the global financial markets, that credibility is waning. And if/when it does, there will be big trouble for US citizens, and the world. Do you have a stash of reserve assets: Gold, silver, real estate, etc? What do you think is the best way to prepare in the case of such an event?

Vote Voyage: Navigating the Global Election Wave in 2024 🌍❎ Elections are on my mind as I started 2024. This year brings us an unprecedented global landscape as numerous nations gear up for pivotal elections. With voting processes scheduled in at least 64 countries worldwide, almost half of the world's population will participate in shaping their countries' destinies at the ballot box. And with that also shaping the global arena in a major way. The outcomes of these elections hold the potential to usher in significant geopolitical shifts during 2024. As polarization, disinformation and misinformation are top risks to stability across the globe, they also risk diminishing our ability to tackle global challenges such as climate change. Therefore the multitude of election processes will decide whether we will see improved global collaboration or further fragmentation.   Take a look at the #TIME map, showing the places were elections are taking place in this monumental year. #Elections2024 #Geopolitcs #ClimateChange
