The European Union has set ambitious climate goals, aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 55% from 1990 levels by 2030. This target is part of the EU's broader commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. The Paris Agreement, adopted in 2015, emphasizes the need for global emissions to peak before 2025 and decline by 43% by 2030 to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Meeting these targets is critical, as the world is currently approaching new temperature records, and the UN warns that global emissions are reaching record levels without signs of peaking.
