On the 16^th of April, Bellona Europa submitted its response to the European Commission’s European Climate Law Roadmap.

Bellona Europa welcomes the European Commission’s Roadmap for the first “European Climate Law”, set to enshrine the 2050 climate neutrality target into law and increase the EU’s intermediate target for 2030.
