Goal to cut emissions 90% among world’s ambitious

EU facing political pushback on green agenda

BRUSSELS, March 5 (JP) – European ‌Union countries gave the final approval on Thursday to a new climate target to slash greenhouse gas emissions 90% by 2040, pressing ahead with the bloc’s ambitious climate agenda despite political resistance.
The new climate target ​is a hard-fought political compromise, struck by governments and EU lawmakers last year. ​It is more ambitious than most major economies’ emissions-cutting commitments, including China’s.
