European Commission Sets Out 'Cost-Effective' Roadmap to 2050 Low Carbon Economy

The EU Commission adopted a Roadmap setting out how Europe could meet its targets of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 80-95% of 1990 levels by 2050. The Roadmap uses comprehensive economic modelling to show that the most cost-efficient pathway to the 2050 target requires a 25% emissions cut in 2020, to be achieved through internal measures alone, rather than the current 20% reduction target.
