Aaaaaarrrghhhhhh the neoliberal myopic definition of efficiency=cheap again:

"Achieving the EU’s 2040 and 2050 climate targets in a cost‑effective manner requires meaningful emission reductions across the entire economy."
Says Otmar Edenhofer, PIK Director and chair of the European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change.

So the cost-effective manner is the main focus, The Goal, in that sentence, right?
Right.
Not the remaining carbon budget, no. Cost-effectiveness. Right.
And clinging to target policy years that were insufficient from the get-go.
Right again. Some advisory board on climate change they are...

Just like the British CCC, a bunch of lazy climate-impact deniers – for the sole purpose of not having to change their silly econ gospel. That would be over-taxing their intellectual capacity, it seems.
Welllll, okay. Right.

I analysed 4 key EU Parliament votes (EUDR, Omnibus 1, Climate Law 2040, Deforestation Regulation) using official roll-call records. The EPP sides with the far right. S&D is splitting. No stable pro-climate majority exists.

Rewild to deter invasion. Why not just rewild?

To be fair the two places mentioned, Finland and Poland, have stunning environments right on the borders they share with Russia and her allies and are already rewilding so perhaps all these geo-politics aren't so bad if they come with nice side effects for everyone.
