EU after COP26 – what to expect?

Plan B
Christian Danielsson, Head of the European Commission's Representation in Sweden, visits Campus Helsingborg to discuss COP26 with students.

Before and during COP26, young people have called for urgent climate action. The European Commission argues that climate action is the top priority for the EU. But is the speed fast enough? And what changes are to be expected by the EU Green Deal? These issues, among others, will be discussed in a breakfast seminar on 2 December.

After two weeks of intense negotiations, the world's top leaders have left Glasgow and are back home, trying to manage their homework of COP26 – limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. 

But what effects will the decisions made in Glasgow have on a European level? 

Welcome to a one hour seminar with  Christian Danielsson, Head of the European Commission's Representation in Sweden. He will discuss Europe's ambition to become the world's first climate-neutral continent by 2050. He will also go through the European Green Deal as well as the effects of  the Paris Agreements and COP26, on a European, national and global level. 

Alva Nyblom, President of the Fashion Science Board, at Lund University, will discuss questions related to greenwashing, the future of the fashion industry as well as the responsibilities of the private common consumer versus policymaking on a political level.

Jean Rochat, student at the program Sustainable Service Management, Campus Helsingborg, Lund university, will discuss topics related to sustainable consumption, sustainable business models and environmental governance and policy.

The seminar will be moderated by Johan Alvehus, Researcher at Campus Helsingborg, Lund University.

There will be free breakfast during the talk.
