EU pollutant strategy: cep warns of double burdens

The EU's new pollutant strategy could lead to bureaucratic double regulation in environmental and climate protection and cause considerable cost burdens, the Center for European Policy (cep) warns in an analysis that will be published on Tuesday and was made available to Europe.Table in advance. The EU Commission should differentiate more precisely between the unattainable goal of a "pollution-free" and a "low-pollution" environment.

Do bans improve morale?

China's Communist Party is issuing a storm of rules, bans and restrictions. Its focus is on the country's youth – and its Internet companies, which have been enormously successful and profitable up to now. The party not only wants to set new values, but it also wants to set itself apart from the West with these standards. In this way, the CCP is returning to its role as a shaper of society, a role it had actually abandoned after Mao.
