The frequency and intensity of natural disasters in Europe is increasing. Largely due to\u00a0climate change<\/a>\u00a0and urbanisation, Europeans have had to deal with more extreme weather including heatwaves, droughts, wildfires, floods and storms in recent years.<\/p>\n

Natural disasters in Europe<\/h2>\n

As the\u00a0European Environmental Agency<\/a>\u00a0points out, global temperatures have been increasing, with 2023 being the warmest year in more than 100,000 years. In addition, Europe is the fastest-warming continent and temperatures are predicted to rise even further.<\/p>\n

This often results in extreme weather conditions, such as droughts and wildfires. For instance, the record drought of 2022 was aggravated by\u00a0wildfires<\/a>\u00a0consuming 900,000 hectares in southern Europe – an area the size of Corsica. In 2023, wildfires burned an additional 500,000 hectares, primarily in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal.<\/p>\n

However, the impact of climate change is not limited to extreme heat: it has also led to severe flooding across Europe. In the past 30 years, floods have affected 5.5 million people in the EU, caused 3,000 deaths and more than \u20ac170 billion in economic damage.<\/p>\n

In 2021, floods in Germany and Belgium caused more than 200 deaths and \u20ac44 billion worth of damage. In 2023, the damage in Slovenia was estimated at 16% of the country’s gross domestic product and the financial loss from storm Daniel in Greece was estimated at billions of euros. Devastating floods hit Austria, Czechia, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia in September 2024.<\/p>\n

These natural disasters do not only result in material damages and the loss of life, but also affect ecosystems, agriculture, water supplies, health, energy security, food security, infrastructure, tourism, and can cause threats to the economy and financial markets.<\/p>\n

What can the EU do to tackle and recover from natural disasters?<\/h2>\n

Civil Protection Mechanism<\/h3>\n

When an emergency hits, the EU can activate its\u00a0Civil Protection Mechanism<\/a>\u00a0in the first instance. It is a mechanism to organise and coordinate an emergency response between the participating states, which include all EU countries as well as 10 other European countries (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iceland, Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Norway, Serbia, T\u00fcrkiye, and Ukraine).<\/p>\n

The Civil Protection Mechanism offers on-the-ground logistical and operational support to improve prevention, preparedness, and response to disasters.<\/p>\n

Solidarity and Emergency Aid Reserve<\/h3>\n

Since 2021, the Solidarity and Emergency Aid Reserve (SEAR) merges two mechanisms to streamline the aid process, allowing for both faster and more flexible emergency efforts and for long-term recovery efforts: the former European Emergency Aid Reserve and the EU Solidarity Fund.<\/p>\n

During the revision of the EU\u2019s long-term budget for 2021-2027, approved in 2024, the maximum budget for the SEAR was increased from \u20ac1.2 billion to \u20ac1.5billion.<\/p>\n

The Solidarity and Emergency Aid Reserve provides rapid financial response to all kinds of emergencies like natural disasters or humanitarian crises in EU countries or their neighbours. For example, it provided support to T\u00fcrkiye after two earthquakes in 2020 and 2023. It can quickly disburse funds to help with immediate humanitarian aid and rescue efforts such as the provision of food, shelter, medical assistance, and transport and logistics, as well as reconstruction.<\/p>\n

Within the Solidarity and Emergency Aid Reserve, the\u00a0EU Solidarity Fund<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(EUSF) offers more long-term financial support to EU countries or candidate countries mainly in the event of a major natural disaster such as a flood, forest fire, earthquake, storm or drought, or since 2020 a major public health emergency, such as the\u00a0Covid-19<\/a>\u00a0pandemic.<\/p>\n

More than \u20ac8.2 billion has been paid out for various recovery efforts since the fund was set up in 2002. Flooding is the most commonly funded event while the largest amounts have been allocated for recovery efforts following earthquakes.<\/p>\n

EU Cohesion Policy<\/h3>\n

Another tool for long-term recovery and reconstruction are funds from the\u00a0EU Cohesion Policy<\/a>\u00a0to rebuild infrastructure, repair damaged public services, and improve disaster preparedness for future emergencies.<\/p>\n

Within the Cohesion policy, the\u00a0European Regional Development Fund<\/a>\u00a0(ERDF) can provide support for infrastructure and the\u00a0European Social Fund<\/a>\u00a0(ESF+) supports social recovery efforts such as training or psychological support.<\/p>\n

Improving preparedness<\/h3>\n

While natural disasters can occur anywhere and anytime, the level of preparedness by countries and societies plays a crucial role in mitigating their impact.<\/p>\n

The EU has many policies and initiatives that aim to build resilience. Through the\u00a0European Green Deal<\/a>, the EU aims to be climate-neutral by 2050 and tackle the global warming that drives many of the natural disasters. With tools such as the\u00a0EU Adaptation Strategy<\/a>, the EU wants to become climate resilient.<\/p>\n

MEPs call for more funding and faster response to natural disasters<\/h2>\n

In October 2024,\u00a0Parliament approved<\/a>\u00a0the\u00a0European Commission\u2019s proposal<\/a>\u00a0to mobilise the European Union Solidarity Fund to help Italy, Slovenia, Austria, Greece and France repair damages from extreme flooding and cyclones in 2023.<\/p>\n

MEPs called for\u00a0more funding to strengthen EU preparedness<\/a>\u00a0to respond to natural disasters and highlighted the need for urgent investment in flood management and flood risk prevention measures.<\/p>\n

Parliament called for faster allocation of money from the EU Solidarity Fund. In addition, the MEPs suggested that the future EU Cohesion Policy should focus on climate change mitigation and adaptation even more and that the Commission should present a European Climate Adaptation Plan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
