Achieving of targets and ambition raising with EU climate protection legislation in the medium (2030) and long (2050+) term

In this project revision points in the current European energy and climate legislation framework are identified, possibilities to use these to raise the ambition are analysed. Potentials for natural sinks in the EU are assessed and possibilities for their inclusion into future EU-climate policy legislation are identified. Possibilities for the target setting of energy and climate legislation after 2030 and the future climate policy architecture are discussed.
