Reality and Opportunity - Events October 2022
Join Rethinking Demand Project Events in Dublin, Belfast and online across Europe. These events are collaboration between the Green European Foundation, Green House Think Tank (UK), Green Foundation Ireland, and Etopia (Belgium).
Europe's insatiable demand for energy and other resources is fuelling a global climate emergency. Amid war and a cost-of-living crisis, it is having a significant impact on the day-to-day lives of many Europeans as well, with the poor and vulnerable disproportionately affected. Join us, either in-person in Dublin or Belfast or online across Europe, to discuss this reality and the fundamental changes needed, but also to explore the opportunities that lie ahead once we start rethinking demand.
This is being explore in a number of event as part of the transnational Rethinking Demand project involving the Green European Foundation, Green House Think Tank (UK), Green Foundation Ireland, and Etopia (Belgium). These events will include presentation of forth coming framing paper.
