Controversies

The Ministry of Environment was the site of raids during the probe into corruption on the part of then Prime Minister Antonio Costa. Costa's premiership stands accused of corruption and malfeasance regarding various deals for lithium mines, a hydrogen production plant, and a data center.[7] President of the Board of Directors of the Portuguese Environment Agency (APA) Nuno Lacasta was one of the suspects on warrants related to the probe.[8]

In 2024, Lisbon climate activists occupied the Ministry of Environment, attaching themselves to railings and blocking access to workers. Their demands included the cessation of fossil fuel use by 2030.[9]
