Climate removed from agenda of Agriculture Council on 15 April

12/04/2019 (Agence Europe)EU Agriculture Ministers, meeting in Luxembourg on Monday 15 April, were initially scheduled to discuss the agricultural aspects of the Commission's Communication on a climate-neutral economy. But the dossier was withdrawn at the last minute from the agenda (see EUROPE 12222/32). “It is disconcerting to note that the discussion on climate strategy has been removed from the agenda of the Agriculture Council with only a few days' notice”, says the NGO WWF. The Commission proposes eight scenarios for 2050 ranging from an 80% reduction in EU greenhouse gas emissions to zero net emissions (see EUROPE 12207/3) (LC)
