Gach cúig bliana iarrtar ar vótálaithe Eorpacha a vóta a chaitheamh chun Feisirí Pharlaimint na hEorpa a roghnú. Bíonn tionchar díreach ag an vóta ar bheartas AE sa téarma parlaiminte dár gcionn.

Faigh amach tuilleadh faoi thoghcháin Eorpacha!

Vóta a chaitheamh i dToghcháin Eorpacha

Is é an SOTEU seo an díospóireacht deiridh dá leithéid roimh thoghcháin Eorpacha i mí an Mheithimh 2024, agus mar sin beidh fonn ar na Feisirí breathnú siar ar a bhfuil bainte amach ag Ursula von der Leyen agus a Coimisiún ó na toghcháin dheireanacha in 2019.

The story of the EP by its Presidents: Nicole FONTAINE, EP President 1999-2002 - EU integration: From multilingualism to a single currency

Leibhéal na farraige ag méadú, an iomarca lománaíochta, cailleadh bithéagsúlachta... Tá daoine ó gach cúlra ar fud an Aontais imníoch faoin athrú aeráide. Seo hiad Anu agus Carlos, beirt tacadóirí aeráide atá ag déanamh beart nithiúil ar son an phláinéid. Duine amháin mar 'Gníomhaí Mamó' san Fhionlainn, an duine eile mar bhall d’eagraíocht neamhrialtasach 'Global Shapers' sna hOileáin Chanáracha. Tá an tAontas Eorpach ag gníomhú chun ár bpláinéad a chosaint tríd an gComhaontas Glas don Eoraip, reachtaíocht nua ar astaíochtaí carbóin agus coimirce níos fearr do bhithéagsúlacht an Aontais.

Gníomhú ar son na haeráide ó ghlúine agus i náisiúin éagsúla: seo hiad Anu & Carlos

&lt;p>Rising sea levels, excessive logging, the loss of biodiversity... Across the EU, people from all walks of life are concerned about climate change. Meet Anu and Carlos, two climate advocates who are taking concrete steps for the planet. One as an 'Activist Granny' in Finland, the other as a member of the 'Global Shapers' NGO in the Canary Islands. The European Parliament is acting to protect our planet with the European Green Deal, new legislation on carbon emissions and better safeguards for the EU’s biodiversity.&lt;/p>
