Can You Trust Climate Information? How and Why Powerful Players Are Misleading the Public

EUROPEAN UNION, JUL 2 – The European Commission aims to accelerate climate neutrality by 2050 with a 90% emission cut by 2040, supported by scientific advice and flexible measures for member states.

  • European Commission proposed an amendment to the EU Climate Law, setting a legally binding 90% GHG reduction target by 2040 after months of political negotiations.
  • Building on the EU’s 2021 Climate Law, the proposed 2040 target aims for a 90% GHG reduction, balancing scientific advice with economic and geopolitical considerations.
  • Eurobarometer shows 85% of Europeans see climate change as serious and 81% support 2050 neutrality, with the proposal permitting up to 3% of reductions via international credits from 2036.
  • The proposal now advances to the European Parliament and Council for negotiations, with a vote scheduled for September, as the legislative process begins.
  • Ultimately, the EU’s 2040 target aims to cut emissions by 90%, saving €850 billion in imports, creating 2 million jobs, and shaping global climate policy at COP30.
