At #COP30, our Head of Carbon Accounting, @mrkprstn.bsky.social, highlighted why #electrifying #nonroadmachinery is key and how strong policy signals, smart #publicprocurement, and innovative power solutions will drive this transition. More here: eu.bellona.org/focus-area/e...

🎙️ Cement decarbonisation takes the mic! Our Embodied Carbon Advisor, Dr. Marco Sirotti & Embodied Carbon & Lead Markets Policy Manager, Irene Dominguez, joined @deutschewellerss.newsmast.social.ap.brid.gy's Inside Europe podcast. Listen on Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/17nC...

✅ @europarl.europa.eu confirms #2040target of 90% emissions reduction & introduces safeguards on the quality of international credits. ❌ The deal still dilutes domestic #climateaction: allows up to 5% of credits, weaker land sinks & calls for a delay/ slower phase-out of EU ETS free allowances.

🚨 New joint letter: The @ec.europa.eu must rethink its proposed reforms to the #ETS State Aid Guidelines - or risk diverting billions in carbon revenues away from real #climateaction & #decarbonisation. Read our joint call together w/ CSOs and cleantech innovators: eu.bellona.org/2025/11/11/j...

Our team is gearing up for #COP30noBrasil in Belém! 🌍 For 30 years, we’ve been where change happens working with thinkers, doers & decision-makers to turn climate ambition into credible action. Explore our past engagement at #COP: eu.bellona.org/events/bello... Stay tuned for more updates!

Vous ne trouverez pas mieux que cette explication par ma collègue Amélie : "Relying on even more international credits and abandoning our land sinks is like using less coffee and topping it up with water: the cup looks full, but the strength is weaker." Et on n'aime pas le mauvais café.

Today, EU Environment ministers finally agreed on their position on the 2040 90% #climatetarget & the 2035 NDC. But it has been significantly watered down. 👉 Read our full reaction: eu.bellona.org/2025/11/05/e...

The @ec.europa.eu’s draft on updating #ETS State Aid Guidelines risks further diverting away EU ETS revenues from #climateaction. ⬇️🔗Read this article in @endseurope.com, quoting our Policy Advisor on Sustainable Economy Francesco Lombardi Stochetti!

At Bellona, we’re concerned that the proposed ETS State Aid Guideline changes would expand subsidies for fossil-based power instead of driving #decarbonisation. ❕This risks diverting #ETS revenues away from #climateaction and could delay progress on measures like the #CBAM.

New column for E24 by Lina Strandvåg Nagell, our Deputy Director & Head of Policy! She warns that Europe still “lacks clear goals and direction” on climate and that fading ambition risks delaying vital targets. #2040target #climatetargets Read here (in Norwegian) e24.no/internasjona...

🎥 Media Corner from the Bellona Climate Action Conference 2025! “What’s your main takeaway from this year’s Bellona Climate Action Conference?” We asked our speakers and guests - and here’s what they had to say! Check out the full video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDHg... #BCAC #climateaction

🏭🍃Takeaways from the Baltic Carbon Forum! Clara spoke on Nordic industrial #decarbonisation & public perception, while Janis highlighted #CCS as a scalable #climatesolution for hard-to-abate industries. Collaboration & knowledge sharing remain key to accelerate CCS deployment across the region.

🚨 Good news from Latvia: the ban on CO₂ storage has been lifted! Today the Latvian Parliament approved key amendments to the Law on Pollution, ending the ban on geological CO₂ storage. Read why we've been advocating for this progress & why it's a major step: eu.bellona.org/2025/10/09/l... #CCS

#Cement builds our world, but it also emits 4% of the EU’s CO₂. Our 🆕 report breaks down how we can decarbonise this crucial sector to reach #climateneutrality by 2050. Thanks to those that joined the Q&A with Dr. Marco Sirotti, author of the report! Read it here: eu.bellona.org/publication/...

Journalists👋 join us tomorrow for a Q&A with our Embodied Carbon expert Dr. Marco Sirotti on our new report about decarbonising #cement. Cement makes up 4% of total EU CO₂ emissions, yet is one of the hardest-to-abate sectors. Bring your questions & register here: zoom.us/meeting/regi...

💬“CCS, hydrogen, and other technologies are not goals in themselves - they are tools to reach net-zero industry.” Our Director @jonashelseth.bsky.social shared insights on how Europe can lead the clean industrial transformation at the 4th Europe CCUS & Hydrogen Decarbonisation Summit. ⬇️
