The Green Week 2005 will look at all aspects of climate change and in particular at the human factor. The purpose is to invite and encourage everyone to "think aloud" about how we can all change our environmental behaviour. It is aimed at local, regional and national decision-makers, businesses, non-governmental organisations and the general public.
DG Environment will bring stakeholders and experts together to provide the Commission with the knowledge and views to help us further develop effective climate change policies.
The European Commission has also launched a school competition meant for 6 to 16 year-old children.
On the last day of Green Week 2005, Friday June 3, European Commissioner for the Environment Stavros Dimas and high-level politicians will face questions from a panel of children debating short and long term solutions to climate change.
