The European Union has unveiled an aggressive plan to fight global warming positioning itself as a world leader on climate change. Under the plan, called “Fit for 55,” every industry will be forced to accelerate its shift away from fossil fuels.
It’s a roadmap to hitting Europe’s ambitious 2030 goal of reducing planet-warming emissions by 55 percent from 1990 levels. Achieving that target will put Europe on course to becoming carbon-neutral by 2050.
