After the debate in Brussels, the EU has come up with an energy policy, which it believes will help combat climate change. The European Commission laid out three main objectives to be achieved by 2030: to reduce gas emissions by 40 % from 1990, to use 28% renewable energies, and to improve energy efficiency by 30%. EU leaders also discussed boosting efforts to contain the spread of the Ebola virus, including creating a mandate for a special coordinator who can work closely with the United Nations on a more effective response to the epidemic. The leaders pledged the equivalent of a further USD31 million towards developing a potential vaccine for the deadly virus./. |
