More than a year’s rain fell in just eight hours over Valencia, Spain, causing more than 200 deaths, in Europe's deadliest flash flood in decades.

Explosive downpours have also devastated vast territories across Portugal, Germany, Austria, Poland, Italy, and France. But growing pressure from far-right lobbyists and climate change deniers has paused the EU Commission's plan to tackle extreme events.

Enough!

Without pressure, nothing will change. Join the petition urging the Commission to greenlight an EU response plan to prevent extreme floods and share it everywhere:
