Submission Statement

The EU has set itself ambitious decarbonization targets. It aims for Europe to have [net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050](https://climate.ec.europa.eu/eu-action/climate-strategies-targets/2050-long-term-strategy_en), and has enshrined those targets in law in the territory’s 27 countries.

The bloc has used its [European Green Deal](https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/priorities-2019-2024/european-green-deal_en) to speed up decarbonization, and while these results are impressive, this report points out they will need to accelerate further to meet the 2050 targets.
