One step closer to net zero: European Commission proposes 2040 climate target
date: 26/02/2024
The European Commission presented its recommendation for the EU’s 2040 climate target, advocating for a 90% cut to greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 levels. This will be an important step on the way to reaching climate neutrality in Europe by 2050.
What’s next? Now a political debate on the way forward starts, and the next Commission, which will take office after the 2024 European elections, will make a legislative proposal.
