Time for Plan B on addressing climate change, says Policy Exchange Europe
Europe must rethink its approach to tackling climate change, according to a new report from leading think tank Policy Exchange. As the latest round of international climate negotiations come to an end in Bonn this week, the report says European climate policy does little to persuade other countries, especially China and the Unites States, of the need to sign up to ambitious carbon reduction targets.
The report – Climate Change Policy: Time for Plan B – insists that while the EU should retain its existing 2020 emissions reduction target and its high level of ambition on longer-term decarbonisation, there needs to be a stronger focus on lowering the costs of climate mitigation at global level.
