What does the EU Climate Law have to do with cement?

The document asserts that achieving climate neutrality by 2050 requires a zero-carbon industrial sector, noting that industrial emissions currently represent 16% of the EU's total CO2 pollution and are not expected to decrease by 2030 without intervention. It calls for the EU to increase its 2030 greenhouse gas emission cut target to 65% and demands that the Commission's industrial strategy move beyond general direction to include specific measures and governance structures.

• Industrial emissions account for 16% of the total CO2 pollution in the EU and are not projected to decrease until 2030.
• The author argues that the European Green Deal's success depends on whether the industrial clean transition is central to the Commission's industrial strategy, and suggests increasing the 2030 climate target to a 65% reduction in emissions.
• A meaningful industrial strategy must move beyond general long-term direction to incorporate specific objectives, measures, a defined pathway for industry, and a governance structure for monitoring and correction.
