European Climate Law

The European Climate Law is a legal framework established by the European Union to set binding commitments for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change. It aims for the EU to become climate-neutral by 2050, meaning net-zero emissions. The law outlines clear targets, such as cutting emissions by 55% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels, and ensures that climate actions are legally enforceable across member states. It also promotes adaptation to climate impacts and supports a transition to sustainable energy sources, fostering a resilient and environmentally responsible economy across Europe.
