Achieving climate goals will also be a major task for the EU

The EU has set itself a binding target of achieving climate neutrality by 2050 as part of the European Green Deal with the European Climate Regulation. This requires a significant reduction in the current greenhouse gas emissions levels in the coming decades. As an in-between step towards climate neutrality, ambitious climate targets have been set for 2030 and member states have committed to reducing CO2 emissions by at least 55% by 2030.
