The European Commission plans to propose in July a legally binding target to cut EU countries&#8217; emissions by 90% by 2040, from 1990 levels. But faced with pushback from governments, Brussels is assessing options including setting a lower target for domestic industries, and using international carbon credits to make up the gap to 90%.<\/p>\n<p>The EU&#8217;s climate science advisers, the European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change (ESABCC), warned against this approach, which they said risked diverting funds away from investments in European industries and infrastructure. Counting carbon credits would mean EU countries could buy credits from projects that reduce CO2 emissions abroad &#8211; for example, forest restoration in Brazil &#8211; and count them towards the EU goal.<\/p>\n<p>Proponents say these credits are a crucial way to raise funds for CO2-cutting projects in developing nations. But some EU officials are wary. The EU banned international credits from its carbon market in 2013, after a flood of cheap credits with weak environmental benefits contributed to a carbon price crash. This would require a nearly entirely emissions-free power sector by 2040 and a shift to electrify polluting industries. The advisers said this would bring benefits including less pollution-related health problems, driving investments to modernise industries, and improving security by reducing Europe&#8217;s reliance on imported fossil fuels.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/sustainability\/cop\/eu-warned-by-advisers-not-weaken-new-climate-goal-2025-06-02\/\">Reuter&#8217;s<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/6-710\/\">EU warned by advisers not to weaken new climate goal<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22,1],"tags":[4416,575,274,655],"class_list":["post-140352","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-yleinen","tag-climate-goal","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-eu","tag-yleinen"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140352","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=140352"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140352\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=140352"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=140352"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=140352"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
