Alarm! The EU intends to accelerate the rate of reduction of greenhouse gas emissions

The European Commission proposed strengthening its target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40 per cent to 50 or 55 per cent from 1990 levels in the next 10 years. Miriam Wolfrum, director of political affairs at the European branch of the international organization Carbon Disclosure Project, can and should reduce emissions by more than 55% by 2030. (CDP Europe Carbon Disclosure Project), on whose website it is written, one hundred CDP e is a non-profit charity that manages a global disclosure system for investors, companies, cities, states and regions to manage their environmental impact. Over the past 15 years, we have created a system that has led to unprecedented participation in solving environmental problems around the world. Why the EU needs to accelerate the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is quite obvious. Increasing the separation of the European Union from other countries in terms of carbon intensity of technologies and goods will allow the EU to more tightly use the mechanisms of carbon protection of its markets and promote its technologies to the markets of other countries, including Russia, as standards of a green economy. There is no doubt that in the face of growing climate hysteria and the forced creation of institutions of climate justice, the advancement of European technologies will become policy-making. * * * Setting the right goal for 2030 will significantly change our economy and society. The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has unequivocally stated that a 0.5 C global warming would be catastrophic. This could cost the global economy up to $15 trillion as a result of additional climate impact. To the consequences can also be added a sea level rise of 10 cm and an increase in the likelihood of the absence of ice cover of the Arctic Ocean in summer by 10 times. But since European private capital is more ready to act than the European Commission, the EU can raise its goals and show that its bid for global leadership in the field of green economy is in line with the latest achievements of science. Why increasing emissions reductions from 50 to 55% is not enough In its recent article, the international Science-Based Targets Initiative (Science Based Targets initiative SBTi) showed that emissions should fall by 4.2% annually until 2030 to limit warming to 1.5 C. Based on this understanding, EU actions are aligned with the Paris Agreement and the EU goal of achieving climate neutrality, which will reduce emissions by at least 55%, which is the top indicator proposed by the Commission. Such a goal in itself is not enough to demonstrate the world leadership of the EU. To bring the European target for 2030 in line with the latest conclusions of climatology on the need to limit
