Il-foresti primarji u antiki fl-Unjoni Ewropea huma rari, żgħar u frammentati. Dawn jammontaw għal inqas minn 3% taż-żona totali tal-Ewropa li hija miksija bil-foresti. Huma ekosistemi naturali mhux mittiefsa, fejn ftit li xejn jew lanqas tara sinjal tal-impatt tal-bniedem, u fejn tiffjorixxi l-ħajja selvaġġa kif ilha tagħmel għal sekli sħaħ. Dawn il-foresti għandhom rwol ewlieni fil-konservazzjoni tal-bijodiversità, kif ukoll fl-assorbiment u l-ħażna tal-karbonju. Huma jgħinu wkoll fil-provvista tal-ilma ħelu, fir-regolamentazzjoni tal-kundizzjonijiet lokali tal-klima u fiż-żamma tas-saħħa tal-bnedmin. Huma jospitaw ukoll ħafna speċijiet fil-periklu. 
Il-protezzjoni tal-foresti tal-Ewropa mhijiex biss ir-responsabbiltà tal-Istati Membri individwali. Dan huwa impenn komuni fuq il-livell tal-Unjoni Ewropea. Il-Parlament Ewropew jinsab fiċ-ċentru ta’ dawn l-isforzi. Hu jappoġġja bil-qawwi l-preservazzjoni tal-foresti primarji u antiki.

The aim of the legislative proposal for a Union certification framework for carbon removals initiative is to ensure high-quality EU certified carbon removals, through a transparent and credible governance framework. In doing so, this would open up the possibility for further investments towards carbon removal activities and increased deployment.

EPRS podcast policy - A Union certification framework for carbon removals

MEPs review the new US administration’s recent decision to pull back from a number of international organisations and agreements.

Following his inauguration on 20 January 2025, President Trump signed a large number of executive orders setting the priorities of the new US administration, including the country’s withdrawal from the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the Paris Agreement on climate change mitigation. Alongside Commission representatives, MEPs will discuss the impact of these decisions internationally and on the EU’s future involvement in these global initiatives.

Background

This is the second time the US has initiated the process of withdrawing from both the WHO and Paris Agreement.

During the first Trump administration (2017-2021), the US gave formal notice of withdrawal from the Paris Agreement in November 2019 (which then took 12 months to take effect). Shortly after taking office, President Biden revoked the decision, with the US formally rejoining the agreement in February 2021. President Trump also started the withdrawal process from the WHO in 2020, but it was never finalised and the decision was reversed by the Biden administration.

The US Inflation Reduction Act is a huge investment bill pouring over US$369 billion into the American economy. It favours clean energy and technology made in the US or in countries America has a trade agreement with, which is not the case for the European Union. Considering how to integrate its climate, energy and industrial policies, so as to contribute towards climate goals and energy security while retaining the global competitiveness of its economy, the EU proposed a Green deal industrial plan.
