Global leaders announced a groundbreaking Declaration on Sustainable Lifestyles and Fairness at the 16th Clean Energy Ministerial Meeting (CEM16). This initiative is a major step towards fostering sustainable lifestyles and fair access to clean energy access worldwide.
Inspired by India’s G20 presidency and the global Lifestyle for Environment Mission (LiFE), this declaration embodies shared efforts in sustainable lifestyles and climate action. The European Commission strongly supported the declaration, and their leadership was crucial in moving this initiative forward.
This voluntary declaration unites CEM member countries, partners, and stakeholders in a pledge to ensure everyone benefits from the shift to clean energy. It focuses on promoting sustainable habits globally, advocating for involving all communities, particularly vulnerable groups, youth, and women. The declaration calls on governments, civil society, and businesses to work together to drive fair clean energy transitions and safeguard the planet for future generations.
