Global Legislators Organisation for a Balanced Environment - GLOBE-EU
GLOBE EU is a network of Members of the European Parliament, MEPs. It is a sister organisation of GLOBE Europe (a network of national Members of Parliament) and associated with GLOBE International.
GLOBE?s purpose is to facilitate high level dialogues amongst legislators on key environmental issues. These dialogues are led by legislators but involve international business leaders and civil society representatives. Their objective is to urge effective action by governments and private sector leaders.
Key themes of recent GLOBE EU activities include bio-energy, climate change, environmental sustainability and world trade rules, land use and food policy, nanotechnology, sustainable forestry, sustainable production and consumption and water issues.
