European Green Deal


What our planet looks like tomorrow will depend on how we balance economic recovery and environmental protection today. AmCham EU companies are playing an active role in the transition towards a greener economy in Europe. With clearly defined targets, and a path for achieving them, our member companies will continue to be constructive partners in the definition and implementation of climate policies.
 

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is an economy-wide endeavour, and requires a policy framework enabling sustainable growth, the pursuit of competitive advantages and innovation. Investment in infrastructure and new technologies should be at the forefront of the EU and national recovery measures.
