"The European Commission unveiled five flagship research and innovation
“missions” on Thursday (4 July), two of which are directly aimed at
addressing the climate crisis.

Former EU climate Commissioner Connie Hedegaard will spearhead the first
research and innovation mission, on “Adaptation to Climate Change
including Societal Transformation”.

The fourth mission, meanwhile, will focus on “Climate-Neutral and Smart
Cities” and will be led by former Warsaw mayor Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz,
highlighting the growing importance of global warming in the EU’s
research and innovation agenda."
