The European Union’s endorsement reinforces the crucial role of cities and regions as key partners in delivering the Paris Agreement global goals

The EU hits a new climate milestone — agreeing a legally binding target of 90% emissions reduction by 2040, with a domestic goal of 85% and up to 5% via international carbon credits. This underscores the EU’s leadership in global climate ambition and delivery.

At COP30 in Belém, the EU will reaffirm its leadership on climate action, pushing for stronger global ambition, a fair and clean transition, and full delivery of Paris goals. The EU will champion clean energy, climate finance, resilience and a united multilateral response to the climate crisis.
