Everybody counts: why national climate targets must not be scrapped

WWF European Policy Programme -

The EU shows every sign of wanting to scrap the law which sets national climate targets. Yet national targets are vital for driving down emissions.

Luckily, now citizens have a chance to make their voices heard. The European Commission has opened up a public consultation on the national climate target law which runs until 5 February.

A group of NGOs, including WWF, Transport and Environment, CAN Europe, EEB, Birdlife Europe, Carbon Market Watch have started a petition to send a strong message to the European Commission that binding national climate targets are needed and must be strengthened to achieve Europe’s 2030 climate goal.
