Climate Action

The Commission today presents an Electrification Action Plan to make Europe the first electro-powered continent, and a stronger carbon market, revising the EU Emissions Trading System to support EU industry in the clean transition and in electrification.

Against the backdrop of a summer already marked by heatwaves and wildfires across much of Europe, the European Commission honoured those lost to and affected by the climate crisis while underlining measures to better manage climate risks and strengthen disaster prevention, preparedness and response.
