THE POWER TO CHANGE
Today the European Union produces a sixth of its electricity using renewable energy sources like wind, solar and hydro power. But that proportion will have to more than double over the coming decade if the EU is to keep its promise of tackling climate change by ensuring that 20 percent of our energy comes from renewable sources by 2020. This film, shot in Germany, Denmark and Spain looks at a number of projects supported by the EU's Intelligent Energy Europe Programme, which are designed to help the Union meet this ambitious target.
WOMEN TO THE TOP
In the current economic climate, Europe needs to mobilise all its available talents. Research has shown that companies with more women at top level tend to perform better. So why do women remain hugely underrepresented in all spheres of power and decision making in the EU? To mark International Women’s Day on March 8 th, a new video from the European Commission Directorate General Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities looks at the too slow progress being made in bringing gender parity to the world of business and politics.
