EEAC, the Way Ahead in the Light of the Last Five Years

At our annual plenary session of the European Environment and sustainable development councils held in Bordeaux in October 2008, we as representatives of national environmental and sustainable development councils decided to give our view on the financial situation in the context of our statement on “Sustaining Europe for a long way ahead”. We were discussing that statement which was prepared before the major crisis had become clear. So we decided to address ourselves to the president of the Council of Europe and to our national governments for a help.
