Climate and resilience law

  • Project

The main objective of the climate and resilience law adopted on July 20, 2021 is to respect the EU target of reducing Greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030. According to the impact assessment, this Law should secure the achievement of between half and two-thirds of the way to be covered between emissions in 2019 and the target for 2030, thanks to a reduction estimated at between 56 and 74 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent in total.

It covers the following six areas, stretching over the entire scope of the economy: “consuming”, “producing and working”, “moving”, “living”, “feeding” and “strengthening the judicial protection of the environment”.
