Europe – Don’t fall into the (gas) trap!

Ciarán Cuffe Jutta Paulus Marie Toussaint
Opinion by Ciarán Cuffe & Jutta Paulus & Marie Toussaint
European institutions are discussing the future of Europe’s energy. Current rules pre-date the Paris Agreement and the Green Deal, making it impossible to achieve carbon neutrality objectives by 2050. This revision will decide how fossil fuels are financed and consequently, the place given to renewable energy in Europe.

Towards an ETS that works for climate and the transformation of industry
