Negotiators from EU countries and the European Parliament agreed on a landmark new law to restore at least 20% of Europe’s land and sea areas by 2030 and all ecosystems in need of restoration by 2050.
20% seems really low, but I guess it’s better than 0%
But 20% within 6 years seems absurdly high. Unless 25%+ of the land is already designated as ‘nature’ then all they need to do is not turn it into a parking lot. Still a pretty big ask.
Not enough to achieve something, but enough to pretend that it might do something.
