🚨 EU Parliament adopted a 90% net emissions reduction by 2040, averting far-right attempts to scrap it ➡️ caneurope.org/eu-parliamen...

But the deal comes with compromises. Midway through #COP30, the EU must raise ambition and close loopholes to ensure real climate action.

🤯Despite promising to back the ENVI Cttee deal on the EU 2040 climate target, parts of the EPP are now trying to weaken it, pushing to cut the goal to 83% net, further delay ETS2, and undo key improvements!

🚫 The EPP should stop these dirty games, and keep its word to stand by EU climate action!

🚨Yesterday the EU Council finally agreed on a 90% net 2040 climate target.

🔎 But did you spot the dangerous loopholes in the text that threaten this same headline figure just agreed? 😓

⚠️ The Council of the EU has agreed on a 90% net 2040 climate target, but loopholes threaten even its headline figure.
Our Climate Policy Coordinator, @silviaval3.bsky.social, explains why this deal is disappointing 👇

2040 Climate Target Agreed: a deal, but not a breakthrough - CAN Europe While reaching an agreement before COP30 has been critical, today’s decision is certainly a disappointing outcome. After nearly two years of negotiations, ministers have agreed on a deal that weakens ...

🇪🇺 After nearly two years of talks, EU environment ministers have agreed on a #2040Target - but weakened its core.

🗣️ @harmeling.bsky.social: “This deal is far weaker than the 90% headline suggests,”

🌍 A few days before COP, the EU still hasn’t done its homework! Member States have yet to agree on a 2040 emission reduction target and NDC to prove real commitment to the Paris Agreement.

We won’t let climate-deniers rest Fires rage across Europe – and extremists call climate action “madness.” Our leaders meet this month to decide our future. Tell them: lock in the 90% emissions cut and reject climate rollbacks.

🔴 Europe is facing devastating climate impacts, and action can’t wait! Ahead of #COP30, EU ministers at the ENVI Council will decide whether to commit to an ambitious 2040 target or let climate deniers derail progress.

Last night's #EUCO was a key moment to shape the path towards the proposed 90% #2040Target

While still insufficient, this target brings opportunity to strengthen EU competitiveness.

Environment ministers must now adopt at least 90% net reductions by 2040 and submit the #NDC ahead of #COP30.

Europe is burning: wildfires are forcing families from their homes in Greece, Spain, and Portugal. And yet, extremist politicians are trying to kill the EU’s plan to slash emissions by 90% by 2040. Let’s send our leaders a clear message: No rollback on climate action!

🌡️Amid the heatwave, the EU Commission finally released its 2040 climate target proposal, with 90% net cuts undermined by the major loophole of international credits.
⏰Now EU policy makers need to quickly agree on an ambitious 2040 target and domestic NDC that live up to the EU responsibility.

The ESABCC also reiterated this point last week at the ENVI Committee (from 16:14): multimedia.europarl.europa.eu/en/webstream...

Hi Thorfinn, thanks for the question. If you have a closer look at the report, the ESABCC is very clear in saying that the recommended EU 90-95% net target is domestic, and the EU must also provide support to developing countries ON TOP of this ambition level

🚨 The EU's climate action is at a crossroads 🚨

The #2040Target announcement has been delayed - with some pushing for *shortcuts* that risks derailing real progress.

Here's why each proposed shortcut is problematic 🧵👇

🚨 RED ALERT: the already insufficiently ambitious EU 90% net emission reduction target for 2040 is at risk, with the EU Commission considering including major loopholes 😱. Learn more in my article 👀👇

@wopkehoekstra.ec.europa.eu @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu

EU exploring weaker 2040 climate goal The European Commission wants to keep a 90 percent emissions-cutting target but to change how countries calculate their progress.

Media reports suggest @wopkehoekstra.ec.europa.eu may allow international offsets in the EU’s 2040 climate targets.

This would be a major & dangerous u-turn from current EU climate policy.

Today is the deadline for Countries to submit their NDCs to the UNFCCC. The EU is exceptionally behind schedule, with the @ec.europa.eu yet to publish the EU 2040 climate target amendments 😟. It's time to demonstrate real climate leadership!
