      The petition is about getting enough signatures for the EU. France and Germany have already enough votes.
      If the petition succeeds this could bring in a lot of money that is otherwise not used for the public.
      Please sign for our climate and our future.

        An EU initative needs 1million sigantures and to meet a threshhold in seven countries to be passed. So if you are French or German, it is still worth signing it, to meet the 1million mark.

      It is a European Citizens’ Initiative, which enables EU citizens to promose laws to the EU Commission directly. The idea is of a wealth tax for the richest 1% to finance climate action. Given they are activly lobbying the EU for it, it is hardly greenwashing.
