The European environment – state and outlook 2010: Synthesis

Key message 2 — SOER synthesis

SOER 2010 Message (Deprecated) Published 28 Jan 2011
Climate change — The EU has reduced its greenhouse gas emission and is on track to meet its Kyoto Protocol commitments. However, global and European cuts in greenhouse gas emissions are far from sufficient to keep average world temperature increases below 2 °C. Greater efforts are needed to mitigate the effects of climate change and put in place adaptation measures to increase Europe's resilience.
