This video is part of: Centre for Nature and Climate

Spain is the fastest-growing economy in the Eurozone today. Spain’s green industry is fuelling its economic engine. As the 14th member of the First Movers Coalition (FMC), the World Economic Forum’s decarbonization initiative, Spain is now throwing its economic success behind the coalition’s efforts to accelerate the global phasing out of fossil fuels. The FMC has more than 100 members committed to decarbonizing 7 heavy-emitting industrial sectors, and aims to reduce CO2 emissions by 26 million tonnes this decade.
