A resource-efficient Europe – A programme for climate, competitiveness and employment

Scientific opinion of the Resources Commission of the German Environment Agency


An ambitious resource policy supports the development of an integrated, social and competitive Europe. Even though a global coordination for climate protection is economically, environmentally and socially necessary in the long term, the EU can provide a significant contribution to such a development singlehandedly. Doing so would even be of great economic advantage! The newest results of a comprehensive model show that. In separate scenarios they display a global solution, a European solo effort with predominantly market-based instruments, and the effects of an engaged civil society in the EU.
