European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso has announced “historic” plans to make Europe “the first economy for the low-carbon age”.He said Europeans wanted “a vision and a plan of action” against climate change and the measures would cost 3 euros (£2.10) a week for every citizen.
The aim would be a 20% cut in the EU’s greenhouse gas emissions by 2020, which could rise to 30% with a global deal.
He told the European Parliament there was a cost, “but it was manageable”.
