Climate Change Policy in the EU
One of our knowledge pillars concerns EU climate policy. In times of rising temperatures and sea levels as well as further increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the EU plays a major role on the international stage when it comes to climate action. Not only as a producer of GHG emissions, but more importantly as a leader in the field of climate policy and climate change mitigation.
