Eurofer disappointment over Copenhagen

Eurofer today issued a press release, expressing its disappointment over the outcome of the Copenhagen talks. “The Copenhagen deal is a disappointment. We had hoped that an agreement in Copenhagen would have resulted in a global level playing field between industrial competitors worldwide”, said a EUROFER press release issued earlier today.

Eurofer suggests that a number of EU responses would now be appropriate. These include (amongst other suggestions)

• no European financial support for climate change mitigation and adaptation measures to countries which do not agree to international monitoring of all their industrial GHG emissions,
• increases of financial support for R&D of carbon lean technologies in the EU.
