Transforming the EU into a fair and prosperous society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy
The European Green Deal is the EU’s growth strategy that aims to transform the EU into a fair and prosperous society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy where there are no net emissions of greenhouse gases in 2050 and where economic growth is decoupled from resource use. The European Green Deal will be the red thread running through the EU’s recovery initiatives and will contribute to delivering the EU’s open strategic autonomy objectives. It proposes revisions of relevant legislative measures to deliver on the increased climate ambition:
