According to the Prime Minister, this is needed to fight climate change, which he described as "the biggest of all current crises that affects us all."

Without an urgent and large-scale reduction in greenhouse gases, the objective of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius will be unattainable, Bettel stressed.

In this context, Luxembourg's Prime Minister highlighted the Grand Duchy's efforts to combat climate change. He mentioned, among other things, photovoltaic systems on the roof of every new building, free public transit, and the Climate Citizen Council.

Luxembourg has earmarked a budget of €220 million between 2021 and 2025 to help the countries most affected by climate change.
