The Minister of Environment and Energy argued this Friday that the construction works for the Pisão Dam, in Crato, Portalegre district, must proceed “relatively quickly” so as not to jeopardise its funding. “We now have the funding guaranteed, if we do not move relatively quickly we could also put the Sustainable 2030 programme at risk.”

Context & Explainers
Sustainability (sustentabilidade) means meeting present needs without reducing the ability of future generations to meet theirs, covering environmental, economic and social dimensions. For residents it affects local planning, jobs and services—look for municipal or company targets, timelines and measurable actions when assessing how sustainable a place or employer is.
