Shortly after the EU elections and at the start of the Bundestag election campaign, serious debates are starting on how we should deal with the challenges of the future – including the climate crisis. When presenting his report on the competitiveness of the European Union, former ECB chief Mario Draghi linked decarbonization and the preservation of prosperity – you can’t have one without the other, as we report today. And a new think tank study quantifies how much more public investment is needed in Germany to enable us to face up to the opportunities and risks of geopolitics, digitalization, demographic development and climate change. Not to forget: Today, Tuesday, the Federation of German Industries (BDI) will present its plans for how the German economy intends to transform itself for a climate-neutral future.
