Natural Gas and the European Green Deal

Into Europe: The European Green Deal is not a plan, it is an outline of the different pieces of legislation that need to be set up to drive Europe's Green transition.

The Green Finance Taxonomy is designed to help guide private capital from investors towards Europe's sustainability needs, by designating economic activities as sustainable.

Yet the document is proving controversial over the status of transitional technologies, which include natural gas, nuclear and carbon capture. While activists have labeled it as greenwashing, it may be the only transition the EU's members will be willing to accept and able to afford.
