"2020 was a challenging year for all of us, but it also marks a decisive shift towards sustainability and the ambition of climate neutrality by 2050. The EU as a whole is mobilized to fight not only the economic and social crises caused by the Covid pandemic, but to tackle in parallel the climate and biodiversity crises.

As a member of the EU Covenant of Mayors Political Board and as a Climate Pact Ambassador, I would like to underline the necessary leadership of cities in ensuring green recovery, a just transition and an open dialogue with citizens for the significant economic and societal changes ahead."

- Rafał Trzaskowski, Mayor of Warsaw. He is also a member of the Covenant of Mayors Political Board and rapporteur of the Committee of the Regions on the European Climate Pact.
