"The European Parliament plays an important role in stepping up Europe’s response to the climate crisis. The upcoming European elections in May are a key moment for European citizens to make their voices heard and demand more climate action from their representatives." Climate Action Network (CAN) Europe, Brussels, Belgium.
These elections YOU choose the new European Parliament for the next five years. We all do. If you want better climate politics at a European level this is the opportunity and it will have positive impact on national level too. It's a chance for a better Europa and Planet we should not miss. Another chance will not be until 2024.

Bank Secrecy allows individual people and organisations to have bank accounts that cannot be reviewed or controlled by authorities or anybody else. Basically it allows them to hide money from the rest of the world. The only publicly known cases of the use of secret bank accounts are criminal uses that range from political corruption and other organized crime to tax evasion.
The greatest problem humanity currently faces is the idea of profit. Profit is the main goal of bankers, investors and CEOs. More often than not, however, it turns into a blind obsession for unlimited sales and 'growth' of business, frequently disregarding ethics, morals or even legality. This has clearly shown to have destructive consequences both for nature and the planet as for global society and humanity.
At EurOpinion we think that knowing and being aware of how nature, the universe and the world that surrounds us work is an enrichment a person's life. This knowledge increases appreciation and love for this nature, this world, this universe and, indeed, this life. To some degree it's comparable to the love for music or other art forms.

Hélemaal mee eens Donna!! Erger nog, Engels als invasieve, dominante en monopoliserende taal in de hele wereld!
(work in progress)In his article "Young climate strikers can win their fight. We must all help." journalist and writer George Monbiot explores the possibilities to keep the Climate Movement alive, instead of breaking up or getting stuck as has happened before with other movements.
Freedom of speech, expression and information is the most fundamental human right.
You know your online personal information is raw material for "big data", a product to be sold and then used for publicity, amongst other, by most of the big social networks on the internet. In most countries it may also be required by the authorities. Do you mind?
Full gender equality is a must for a healthy future development of global society.
Since forever big industry has been practically free to destroy nature, the climate and the Earth without any limit or consequences.
In his popular TED talk "Do schools kill creativity?" Sir Ken Robinson questions the validity of the modern education and schooling system for the future. An entertaining but at the same time profound talk that makes you think.
I believe our only hope for the future is to adopt a new conception of human ecology, one in which we start to reconstitute our conception of the richness of human capacity.
You can help StopEcocide accelerate the process of turning Ecocide into the fifth international crime against peace by becoming an "Earth Protector". This is an officially and legally recognized title in almost all countries of the world, that is valid for life, with a one time contribution starting from 5 Euro!It also helps increase the legal backup of the front-line activists in case they get arrested.
It all started with Greta Thunberg (15 years old by then) who staged an action outside the Swedish Riksdag (parliament), holding a sign that read "Skolstrejk för klimatet" or "School strike for climate" in August 2018.
