Ensuring a rational and fair transition to the circular economy, fighting climate change, and protecting biodiversity without compromising the EU’s economic competitiveness are key priorities of Hungary’s EU presidency, a government official told a conference on Thursday.
The government seeks to improve Hungary’s environment, protect the health and quality of life of Hungarian families and communities, green the economy and strengthen its circular operation, Anikó Raisz, the state secretary for the environment and circular economy, said at the opening of the annual scientific conference of the Central European Academy, a two-day event promoting scientific exchanges in line with the priorities of the EU presidency.
So, building a sustainable, healthy and competitive Europe is a top environmental priority of Hungary’s presidency, Raisz, who holds the presidency of the EU’s Environmental Protection Council in the second half of the year, said.
The Central European Academy is holding its international scientific conference for young lawyers in Budapest for the third time, attended by almost 170 researchers from 24 countries, to discuss regulation and best practice which promotes a higher level of cooperation between neighbouring countries, according to an energy ministry statement. Guests this year are the scientific communities of Poland, Serbia and Croatia, the statement said.

Very disappointed to read this. Climate Changeâ„¢ alarmism is a hoax dreamed up by multibillionaires and globalists to use as a pretext for transfer of wealth and control of people. China’s opening up a new coal power plant every single week while they’re busting our hump here over keeping bottle caps attached to the bottles.
At the end of the day, people who can’t tell us for certain if it’s going to rain later today presume to tell us what the weather is going to be like in fifty years, down to a fraction of a degree, AND extensive public policy is tailored accordingly, to the severe detriment of ordinary people. Give me a break.
@michaelsteiner – good point regarding “China” and other less controllable factors in climate. However – someone needs to start doing something, somewhere.
Fun read – should you be inclined: https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1/chapter/chapter-11/ – with numerous references. TLDR – it is not about predicting precipitation this afternoon, but understanding the facts, data and long term trends so we can effectively prepare and perhaps mitigate what our kids and kids kids will inherit from us. Our legacy, if you will.
Regarding the retainers on bottle caps – actually getting used to and not disliking it!
