Environment Committee backs stronger EU disaster relief

Translation Select language:

The European Parliament’s Environment Committee has approved draft legislation to step up EU disaster relief. Authored by the EPP Group’s Elisabetta Giardini, it would update a voluntary system with better resources on demand for disasters including those that result from extreme weather due to climate change. A public survey shows most Europeans believe their country cannot handle all major disasters alone.
