鈥�听having regard to Rule 132(2) of its Rules of Procedure,

1.听Declares an environmental and climate emergency, and calls on the Commission and the Member States, and commits itself, to take immediate action accordingly;

2.听Considers that immediate and ambitious action in the next five years is crucial in order to limit global warming to under 1.5掳C and to avoid mass extinction on the planet;

3.听Urges the new Commission to fully assess the climate and environmental impact of all legislative and budgetary proposals and to ensure that they are all fully aligned with the objective of limiting global warming to under 1.5掳C and of reaching climate-neutrality in the European Union as soon as possible and ideally by 2040;

4.听Calls on the new Commission to put forward an ambitious proposal for a European climate law, including the binding objective of reducing the Union鈥檚 domestic GHG emissions by at least 70听% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels and of reaching the 100听% renewables target by 2050;

5.听Commits to ensuring that upcoming MFF commitments will only be used to finance activities and projects that are fully consistent with the Paris Agreement objectives and avoid harmful biodiversity loss;

6.听Calls for an end to free trade agreements with third countries that favour big business and transfer the burden of the climate crisis onto the people when the countries in question are signatories to the Paris Agreement and are committed to fulfilling its objectives;

7.听Underlines the importance for climate change of having short supply chains in both agriculture and fisheries and of developing food sovereignty and support to local producers by implementing smart practices based on their own knowledge and biodiversity safeguards;

8.听Requires that climate measures be accompanied by strong social and inclusive measures through implementing a green deal for the people that ensures a fair and equitable transition and respects the need for a high standard of welfare and high quality new jobs and training;

9.听Acknowledges that fossil fuel companies are historically responsible for a substantial share of the world鈥檚 GHG emissions, and therefore urges the Commission to work on a mandatory framework for those companies to ensure their compliance with the Paris Agreement;

10.听Considers it essential to involve younger generations and workers in the definition of policies tackling climate change in order to make them stakeholders in their future; calls therefore on the future Commissioner responsible for the 鈥楨uropean Green Deal鈥� and all the Member States to launch a citizens鈥� assembly in early 2020 that will involve the whole population, and especially young people, in this process;

11.听Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission, the Council and the governments and parliaments of the Member States.
