In Ireland agri-based biomethane and biofertilisers are also offer a boost to the rural circular bioeconomy and decarbonisation of our food industry.
"#GreenInfrastructure offer a cost-effective way of achieving some of our key policy objectives as biodiversity, pollution or urban community involvement" says @PeterBerkowitz1 @EUinmyRegion

We are happy to learn from @nedgia 🇪🇸 that more & more cities in #Spain, such as #Madrid, #Barcelona, #Mallorca & #Toledo, are expanding 📈 their fleet of natural #gas buses 🚌 for environmental 🌍 reasons. Such actions are indeed necessary to reduce GHG emissions in #transport! https://twitter.com/nedgia/status/1394940894051110915
Cada vez más ciudades en nuestro país están ampliando su flota de autobuses de #GasNatural🌿 y mejorando la #CalidadDelAire🍃
🚍 #AlcaláDeGuadaira, #Barcelona, #Mallorca, #Madrid, #Salamanca, #Toledo... son sólo los últimos ejemplos.
¡La #MovilidadSostenible con #ECOG no para!
