The Green Tank is an independent, non-profit think tank developing policy solutions for a sustainable future.
With the goal to contribute to the protection of the environment, tackle climate change and advance sustainable development, we:
- monitor and research scientific, political and legal developments, basing our work on facts and data analysis.
- formulate well-documented recommendations and develop alternative options.
- participate in public consultations.
- foster interaction and collaboration with key actors and organizations.
- strengthen the public debate.
Our work focuses on the three pillars of sustainable development (environment – economy – society), with emphasis on:
- climate change mitigation and adaptation, decarbonization with a simultaneous shift to renewable energy sources, energy efficiency and energy savings.
- biodiversity conservation and restoration, as well as the sustainable management of natural resources and ecosystems.
- just transition of the lignite regions and Greece as a whole, promoting the participation of local communities in the creation of a new and sustainable energy - production model.
- sustainable development that puts climate and environmental protection at the heart of social and economic life.
Since its foundation, The Green Tank has been implementing actions aimed at the transition to a sustainable future. Also, our organization actively participates in networks, alliances, campaigns, and collaborates with civil society organizations from Greece and Europe.
The Green Tank was established as an independent civil non-profit organization in 2018. Read our statutory document here.
The Green Tank builds on the long standing experience and expertise of its founding partner team on environmental, climate and energy policy. Its dynamic team is eager to participate in the effort for a successful transition to a sustainable future.
The Green Tank is supported by an Advisory Committee, composed of experienced individuals with varied backgrounds and professional paths relevant to the work and efficient operation of the organization. The members of the Advisory Committee contribute to the strategic decisions and priorities of The Green Tank.
