Enigin - EU Agree To Aim For 30% CO2 Cut By End Of 2010

Enigin - EU Agree To Aim For 30% CO2 Cut By End Of 2010

A climate change policy officer, at the European Commission last week, has announced that the European Union will hopefully be able to succeed in its commitment to reach a 30% reduction of carbon emissions (presently sitting at 20%) by the next U.N. climate conference in Mexico at the end of the year.

Connie Hedegaard, Denmark's Climate and Energy Minister, told the European Parliament: "I very much hope that by Mexico, of course, we could go up to 30%".

The most cost-effective way of achieving carbon emissions reduction is to switch to energy efficiency. Businesses worldwide account for a third of total emissions, and drastically reducing that output would entail massive benefits for the environment, as well as monetary profit for business owners through the reduction of their energy bills.

Energy efficiency companies, such as Enigin PLC, give business owners the opportunity to increase their profit margins by slashing their energy costs. Enigin provide the latest technology available in the energy efficiency industry, for all the most energy consuming needs - lighting, air conditioning, motors and refrigeration.

As well as offering the best quality in their wide range of energy saving products, Enigin deliver excellent customer service for which they are solicited all over the world.

Mrs. Hedegaard also added that she would be a strong advocate of that target increase, and that the EU should use this commitment to "squeeze" more ambitious targets from other countries.

In December 2008, the EU agreed to reduce CO2 emissions by 20% by 2020, from 1990 levels, and was still prepared to raise their cut to 30% during last month's climate summit, provided other countries committed to similar efforts in fighting climate change.

However, Europe considered the outcome of the U.N.-sponsored climate negotiations in Copenhagen as 'disappointing' and not ambitious enough to prompt that increase.

In order to reach the 30% CO2 reduction, the EU will need to take action in order to tackle the industry sector, alone responsible for a third of total emissions.

Implementing Enigin PLC's energy saving systems can induce a considerable decrease in carbon emissions, as well as generally save businesses money on energy bills. To achieve this result, policies would need to evolve, making energy efficiency a mandatory requirement for all public buildings and businesses.
