The European Council has endorsed a binding EU target of a net reduction of at least 55% in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030 compared to 1990, which would put the regional bloc on track for meeting its Paris Agreement obligations and for climate neutrality by 2050. The 2030 target will be achieved in a way that preserves the EU’s competitiveness and takes account of Member States’ different starting points and specific national circumstances and emission reduction potential.
In September 2020, the European Commission proposed to raise the 2030 target for GHG emission 40% emission cut target for 2030 and instead of “at least 55%”, as the European Commission proposed.
