🏔️ The polluting industries might be loud with their ETS attacks but it is the masses that can move the mountains. 📢 We have that MASS supporting the ETS - across Europe! ➡️ 72% of Europeans say that companies emitting the most or failing to reduce their emissions should pay more than others.
Seven in ten across Europe say biggest polluters and climate laggards should pay more, challenging rollback of EU ETS
