Commission Proposes Climate Bailout - But Fails to Put its Euros Where its Mouth is
added: 2009-01-29
Greenpeace welcomes European Commission's proposal to give financial aid for climate protection in developing countries and to support new measures to help reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. However, Greenpeace regrets that the Commission backtracked at the last minute and weakened its proposal by removing any mention of specific amounts of financial aid. Commission's proposal outlines the EU's position ahead of international climate talks in Copenhagen in December this year.
