The EU's climate change policy brings a new answer.

00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:40,760
By 2020, it will cut greenhouse gases by 20%, save 20% of energy through greater efficiency

00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:49,240
and meet 20% of its needs from renewable energy.

7
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,320
This can be done without sacrificing growth.

00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:07,560
In this way, Europe is showing the lead, keeping the lights on without risking the planet's
