Transition to clean energy will be ‘costly’ – Kelly

The transition to using cleaner energies will be ‘costly’ as we move towards significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions.

That’s the warning from Fine Gael MEP Sean Kelly. The European Parliament today debated the EU’s Fit for Fifty Five (55) programme in Strasbourg.

It was proposed by the European Commission last July. And it  aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 55% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels. It’s all part of the EU’s goal to become climate neutral by 2050.

But Sean Kelly says reaching these ambitious targets will mean lots of changes for families and businesses.

Out words: “for businesses”
