EU energy ministers’ agreement not enough for climate protection - opinion

Frankfurter Neue Presse

The agreement by the EU member states’ energy ministers on the Union’s future energy policy is ā€œnot commensurate with the challenges of climate protectionā€, writes Detlef Drewes in an opinion piece in the Frankfurter Neue Presse. With the current requirements in place, the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 40 percent by 2030 would be hard to reach. Drewes also warns that ā€œnot everything that is decided by government representatives in Brussels survives the ensuing domestic parliamentary discussionsā€.
