The Green Deal

Climate change and environmental damage are jeopardising the future of Europe and the world. Europe’s answer to this is the European Green Deal from 2019, which aims to transform the EU into a more modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy.

The objectives are as follows:

The focus is on resource-intensive sectors such as plastic, textiles and construction.

No more greenhouse gas emissions by 2050
Economic growth will be separated from the use of resources
No person or region will be left behind

The action plan covers the following topics:

Climate ambition
Clean, affordable and continuously supplied energy
Industrial strategy for a clean and circular economy
Sustainable and smart mobility
Greening of the common agricultural policy / Farm to Fork strategy
Preservation and protection of biodiversity
Towards a zero-pollution ambition for a non-toxic environment
Integration of sustainability into all EU policies
