📢 Yesterday, the EU set its #2040ClimateTarget, to cut 90% GHG emissions (vs 1990)

🚨Climate loopholes do not cut emissions - they cut credibility!
"Shortcuts" in the EU #2040ClimateTarget such as backloading, carbon offsets, inflated removals and sectoral swaps would only undermine trust, ambition, and global leadership as @caneurope.org explain

📅❌The EU Commission was expected to publish amendments to the #ClimateLaw for the #2040ClimateTarget but has yet to announce a release date. The 2040 target and enabling conditions are essential to set the pathway for a prosperous, competitive and climate neutral EU by 2050.
EU climate chief Ribera confirms #2040climatetarget is delayed: The 2040 target, originally due in the first quarter of this year, is now slated for the second quarter.
