Abstract:
This policy paper attempts to address some of the key steps the EU could take to move beyond climate-neutrality. It is important that Europe’s ambitions do not end with becoming the first climate-neutral continent. As the home of many of the world’s early industrialisers, Europe arguably has a moral duty to lead the green revolution as it did the historical industrial revolution.
