Section: Arts
A recent report from the German government indicates that without further action on climate protection, the nation is likely to fall short of its climate targets for 2040 and 2045. The findings, documented in the 2025 Climate Protection Report approved by the federal cabinet, highlight that while the 2030 climate goals remain within reach, this is contingent upon the successful implementation of planned initiatives.
By 2030, Germany aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 65% compared to 1990 levels, with a goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2045. The report notes a slight decline in greenhouse gas emissions, which fell by 3.4% in 2024 to 649 million tons of CO2 equivalents compared to the previous year. The most significant reductions were observed in the energy sector.
However, challenges persist in two critical sectors: the building and transport sectors, which have repeatedly failed to meet annual targets. Carsten Schneider, the Federal Minister for the Environment, emphasized the need for stronger action in these areas, stating that a comprehensive climate protection program will be announced by the end of the year. This program aims to outline additional measures for the building and transport sectors and includes plans to enhance social equity mechanisms and promote climate-friendly innovations.
The long-term objective remains to meet the climate targets, with an 88% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 compared to 1990 levels. Recently, Chancellor Friedrich Merz expressed skepticism regarding the rationale behind the goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2045.
