Published: 2024-06-05

The European Parliament has adopted the ambitious "Fit for 55" climate package requiring a 55% reduction in emissions by 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050. This decision has sparked a debate among EU parliamentarians.

Charlie Weimers of the Sweden Democrats calls for the decision to be overturned, while Heléne Fritzon of the Social Democrats believes it is the right approach.

Climate expert Susanne Palme shares insights into the importance of this issue and the support it garners in parliament.
