Climate.Table Interview EU climate target 2040

Flasbarth: “No serious weaknesses in the 2040 climate target”

In an interview with Table.Briefings, German State Secretary for the Environment Jochen Flasbarth considers the trilogue agreement on the EU’s 2040 climate target ambitious but correct, despite international emissions allowances. He is also not entirely disappointed with the outcome of COP30.
