Green Deal: kle nan yon Inyon Ewopeyen klima-net ak dirab 

During the coronavirus pandemic economic activity slowed, causing a reduction in carbon emissions but leaving the EU facing recession. In a resolution adopted on 15 May 2020, Parliament called for an ambitious recovery plan with the Green Deal at its core.

The plan, along with the next Inyon Ewopeyen alontèm bidjè which still needs to be approved by member states and Parliament, aims to create a greener, more inclusive, digital and sustainable Europe and increase resilience to future crises such as the kriz klima.

An novanm 2019 la Palman an te deklare yon ijans klima mande Komisyon an adapte tout pwopozisyon li yo nan liy ak yon sib 1.5 ° C pou limite rechofman atmosfè ak asire ke emisyon gaz lakòz efè tèmik yo siyifikativman redwi.

As 99% of European firms are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), accounting for 50% of the EU gross domestic product and responsible for two out of three jobs, the Commission also proposed a new SME strategy, encouraging innovation; cutting red tape and allowing better access to finance. In December MEPs are expected to vote on their position concerning the initial SME strategy, asking the Commission to update it in light of the coronavirus crisis, emphasising liquidity problems and digital aspects as well as expressing support for the move towards a greener economy.
