Fit for 55 Package
The 'fit for 55' package is a set of legislative proposals introduced by the European Union in July and December 2021 to achieve the European Climate Law objectives of climate neutrality by 2050 and a 55% reduction in net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030, compared to 1990 levels. It includes 13 interlinked proposals to revise existing EU climate and energy laws and six new legislative proposals. The package covers various sectors, including transport, energy, and land use, and aims to accelerate emissions reductions through measures such as the EU emissions trading system (ETS), the Effort-sharing Regulation, and the Land Use, Land-Use Change, and Forestry (LULUCF) sector. Key initiatives include stricter CO2 emission standards for new cars, the inclusion of maritime and road transport in the EU ETS, and the promotion of renewable energy and energy efficiency.

The European Green Deal
The European Green Deal, presented by the European Commission on December 11, 2019, outlines a comprehensive strategy to transform the European Union into a fair and prosperous society with a modern, resource-efficient, and competitive economy. This initiative aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, decouple economic growth from resource use, and protect the health and well-being of citizens.
The Green Deal addresses urgent climate and environmental challenges, emphasising the need for a just and inclusive transition that involves all sectors of society. It also highlights the EU's role in leading global efforts to combat climate change and biodiversity loss, leveraging its influence, expertise, and financial resources to mobilise international cooperation.
