Binding target of an at least 40% domestic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 compared to 1990, to be fulfilled jointly. This target has been implemented through to 2030 Framework for Climate and Energy Policies (see http://www.climatepolicydatabase.org/index.php?title=2030_framework_for_climate_and_energy_policies_(strategic_document)_European_Union_2014). The target covers all sectors (including agriculture, land use and waste) and all GHGs, except those covered by the Montreal Protocol. International credits will not be considered. The target is in line with the EU objective, in the context of necessary reductions according to the IPCC by developed countries as a group, to reduce its emissions by 80-95% by 2050 compared to 1990
