Greens present ‘Green New Deal’ at campaign convention

The European Green Party (EGP) gathered national members to adopt a common programme for the EU elections and motivate national sympathisers to fight negative polling results, in an electoral convention in Brussels on the 22 February 2014.

France's Greens decided to focus on water and air quality, issues that can only be solved at the European level.

EurActiv reported on the 22 April 2014 that Europe’s biggest environmental groups had launched campaigning platforms for elections in May 2014, as the Green Party presence in the next parliament looked set to thin dramatically.
