Report: Europe must step up efforts to protect environment
Cape Argus
|September 30, 2025
EUROPE is a world leader in the fight against climate change but must do more to protect its environment and improve its resilience against global warming, the EU’s environment agency warned yesterday.
-
“Significant progress has been made in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution, but the overall state of Europe’ environment is not good,” the European Environment Agency (EEA) said in a statement as it presented its latest report on the issue.
The climate assessment comes after EU member states at a UN climate summit last week were unable to present a formal 2035 plan to further slash greenhouse gases due to disagreements among its 27 member states.
The bloc is also unable to agree on an ambitious proposal from the European Commission to reduce emissions by 90 percent by 2040 from 1990 levels.
EU greenhouse gas emissions have dropped by 37% since 1990, well ahead of other major polluters like China and the US, thanks to the reduced use of fossil fuels and the doubling of renewable energy since 2005.
