"Our development is not sustainable.(...) It is up to us to come up with and implement new, original, adapted and proportionate solutions to the challenges we face."
In this excerpt, in particular :
- The Covenant of Mayors in practical
- Our new challenges
- The Crisis: a brake or an accelerator?
"The CRISIS is our backdrop for the coming period. The next two years will be pivotal:
- Either we will have devoted considerable resources into trying to get back to our previous situation, the one which in fact showed its failure. Apart from the fact that it is probably impossible to achieve this, we would only obtain a temporary breathing space…
- Or we will have begun to move in a completely different direction! Towards a society which is more careful with resources and produces less waste, towards an economy more centred on the local territories, towards a better life now and for the future generations in our countries and those which are emerging and aspire to well-being."
