European Green Deal (disponible en español)

Título: European Green Deal (disponible en español)
Resumen:Climate change is the biggest challenge of our time. And it is an opportunity to build a new economic model. We are at a turning point in the fight against climate change. We are the last generation that can still act in time. It is in our hands to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees, save our livelihoods, limit the extinction of species and protect the planet for future generations. The European Union is leading by example. The European Green Deal, adopted in December 2019, set the blueprint for this transformational change. All 27 EU Member States committed to turning the EU into the first climate neutral continent by 2050. And to get there, they committed to reducing emissions by at least 55% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels. These are legal obligations laid down in the first European Climate Law. This creates new opportunities for innovation, investment and jobs.
