EU climate governance has made significant progress over the past years, including an acceleration under the European Commission\u2019s European Green Deal launched in 2019. Nevertheless, the European Union still has a long way to go to realise the climate and sustainability transition, which will require perseverance and a steadily evolving policy framework for more than a generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cClimate neutrality in 2050 is not the end of the road towards climate stabilisation\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sebastian Oberth\u00fcr identifies and discusses seven momentous challenges for contemporary EU policy on the way to the climate and sustainability transition. They indicate the depth of change still required and the long-term nature of the governance task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
