The climate crisis is real. It’s not a drill. If we do nothing, Barcelona and the planet will become uninhabitable for future generations. In an effort to prevent that happening and mitigate the effects of the climate crisis in the city, Barcelona City Council has declared the Climate Emergency, with an action plan and a budget of 563 million euros to implement a hundred different measures. The goal is to halve greenhouse-gas emissions by 2030 in comparison to levels recorded in 1992, and to cut CO2 emissions by two million tonnes.
