European Green Deal: Commission proposes transformation of EU economy and society to meet climate ambitions

In July, the European Commission adopted a package of proposals to make the EU's climate, energy, land use, transport and taxation policies fit for reducing net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels. Achieving these emission reductions in the next decade is crucial to Europe becoming the world's first climate-neutral continent by 2050 and making the European Green Deal a reality. With these proposals, the Commission is presenting the legislative tools to deliver on the targets agreed in the European Climate Law and fundamentally transform our economy and society for a fair, green and prosperous future.

6 Q&As on:

  1. EU Emissions Trading System
  2. Effort sharing and land use, land use change and forestry
  3. Making our energy systems fit for our climate targets

  5. Revision of the Energy Taxation Directive
