EU Commission presents European Green Deal, setting path for 'just and socially fair' transition

On 11 December, the European Commission presented The European Green Deal, a package of measures and actions for achieving the political ambition of "being the world's first climate neutral continent by 2050" and ensuring a sustainable transition that is just and socially fair. The deal outlines investments needed and financing tools available and covers all sectors of the economy, notably transport, energy, agriculture, buildings, and industries such as steel, cement, ICT, textiles and chemicals.
