La Unión Europea ante la emergencia climática

Abstract

From its origins, the Member States of the Euro­pean Union (EU) have demonstrated the need for strate­gic energy measures. As it did with the 1952 Coal and Steel Treaty and the 1957 Euratom Treaty, designing a strong economic area, although it was based on the promotion of a decadent and unsustainable energy. Today, we are facing an EU, which climate policy is far from the original one, with a plausible objective: to give priority to energy efficiency while making its own path through the inter­national community, designing key, competitive and sus­tainable measures, contributing significantly to the new international climate regime under the Paris Agreement. However the adoption of the European Green Deal, will change the EU energy approach once again.
