The next generation in building a sustainable and circular economy industry

Manfred Grasserbauer

Keynote: Sustainability

The European Green Deal presented by the European Commission December 2019 aims at transforming the European economic system to make it independent from the use of fossil fuels by 2050. By then the European Union should be „climate neutral“, meaning that the net balance for Green House Gas emissions should be zero.

This presentation will introduce the essential elements of the Green Deal and specifically address these issues: Extent of global warming, its visible impact and projections for the future, international activities and agreements to combat climate change, the specific EU Climate Change Program including the overall reduction goals for the emission of Green House Gases, the specific emissions of the various sectors, implementation tools to achieve these ambitious goals („Emission Trading System“ and „Effort Sharing Decision“), planned measures and possible technical solutions for the sectors production of electricity, transport, industry, buildings and agriculture, open questions and possible costs of this transformation, global developments referring to the implementation of the Paris Climate Agreement, possible scenarios for the progress in achieving the goal of limiting global warming to 2°C, respectively 1,5°C and necessary adaptation measures.
