With the Paris climate conference approaching, the EU should redouble its efforts to reach full decarbonisation

The 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference will be held in Paris from 30 November to 11 December 2015. Drawing on research in a recent edited volume, Sebastian Oberthür and Claire Dupont assess the EU’s progress in reducing emissions in the lead up to the conference. They write that while the EU remains the world leader in efforts to tackle climate change, there are still some substantial challenges that will need to be overcome before the EU can reach full decarbonisation.
