Europe is the fastest warming continent in the world, and climate risks are threatening its energy and food security, ecosystems, infrastructure, water resources, financial stability, and people’s health.

It’s not taken seriously at all. Apparently biodiversity is a potted plant along road expansions, ground water means drainage in the parking lot and trees are obstructing the seaside views.
