Climate Change Commission

The Earth–Brain–Health Commission has launched a new initiative connecting climate change and rapid urban change to mental health outcomes. The commission argues that environmental pressures, including extreme weather, pollution and unplanned urban growth, are increasingly affecting psychological wellbeing worldwide. The announcement is drawing attention from health and climate observers who see mental health as an under-addressed dimension of the climate crisis.

An event on climate resilience has brought together representatives of the European Commission, European agencies and national institutions to discuss building networks for climate adaptation and territorial regeneration, spanning from Europe to local communities. The initiative highlights growing attention on how regions can cooperate to withstand climate change impacts and pursue regeneration through shared strategies.

The European Commission and the European Space Agency have launched a joint website presenting collaborative research on Earth's changing climate and environment. The site brings together findings from EU-funded Earth observation projects, using satellite data to track climate change, environmental shifts and related impacts, and makes the results available to researchers, policymakers and the public.
