Publication:Document
On 14 July 2021, the Commission proposed amendments to the Regulation 2018/842 – currently called by many the "Effort Sharing Regulation". Covering more about 60 % of the EU greenhouse gas emissions, this regulation and its reform are an essential elements of the Fit for 55 package. As a contribution to this debate, a paper by Ecologic Institute presents amendments to the Commission's proposal. Amendments are in particular intended to help ensure that all EU climate policy instruments support achieving the EU's 2050 climate neutrality target and net negative emissions afterwards.
This project oversaw two main pieces of work, both within the context of supporting the successful implementation of the European Green Deal. The first was conceptual work for the development of a proposed 'European Climate Neutrality Observatory' (formerly called 'European Green Deal Observatory'). The second part of the project monitored and accompanied the discussion on an adequate revision of the EU Climate Action Regulation (CAR), including the resulting legislative process.
