From Gianis Varoufakis to Oliviero Toscani and Emma Bonino, with scientists, mayors, political leaders, founders of startups and innovative companies and activists from across the board; many voices in unison that in 12 hours gave life to the first online marathon against global warming. These voices were united in asking the prominent leaders of the 1st and 2nd October appointments in Brussels, to discuss the theme proposed by stopglobalwarming.eu. This campaign, the only formal initiative underway on the subject, must collect 1 million signatures so to be discussed by the European Commission.
Is the EU ready to stop global warming with a carbon tax? The appeal of the protagonists of the first online marathon against Global Warming “HEY EU, TAX CO2”, was organised by Eumans!, the Pan-European citizens’ movement that launched stopglobalwarming.eu. The formal initiative aims with the collection of signatures to be an ICE (European Citizens’ Initiative), which by law would have to be discussed by the European Commission as soon as the milestone of one million signatures is reached (there is time until January 20, 2021).
