 As the name suggests, the European Central Bank is at the very heart of the financial system in Europe. They're responsible for economic and financial stability. And in a time of crisis, like now, it's their job to make sure the whole financial system doesn't collapse. This is a big question with loads of possible answers. But essentially, it boils down to this. Right now, to tackle the economic impacts of coronavirus, the ECB is in crisis mode. It's spending massive amounts of money trying to get Europe's economy back on its feet. And with that money comes a choice. They can either choose to spend it propping up fossil fuel companies and worsening the climate crisis, or they can choose to direct the money where it's needed the most into a real green new deal and build back a more just, resilient and healthy Europe. Seems like a pretty obvious choice to me.
