Former Crisis Chief Warns of Possible Backlash Against EU Climate Strategy
Amid escalating political tensions, the EU stays resolute in upholding its climate objectives despite challenges from international leaders and adjustments within its own policies.
In a series of reports, EU climate experts outlined both the risks and opportunities associated with Europe's climate strategy.
Teresa Ribera, a senior official, cautioned that Donald Trump's expected withdrawal from climate commitments could allow other countries to advance their clean energy sectors.
Despite these obstacles, Wopke Hoekstra, the EU's climate chief, remains dedicated to upholding the EU's climate targets.
However, he recognizes the importance of international collaboration.
Furthermore, discussions within the EU are considering adjustments to green policies, but Hoekstra asserts that such changes won't be advantageous to the industry.
Additionally, EU advisors recommend a temporary ban on solar geoengineering, advocating for a global treaty to regulate these technologies.
