According to the Federal Environment Agency (UBA), greenhouse gas emissions in Germany fell by 1.9 % in 2022, Reuters reports. According to the agency, which adds that the reduction to 40 % below 1990 levels was due to higher renewable energy production and lower energy demand, emissions will need to fall by 6 % per year to meet the country's 2030 target. Deutsche Welle it reports this data under the headline: "Germany meets 2022 greenhouse gas emissions target". However, it says the energy and transport sectors "still do not contribute sufficiently to reductions". He adds that Germany aims to reduce emissions by 65 % by 2030 compared to 1990 levels. Bloomberg leads its coverage with the sentence that German transport emissions rose in 2022 "as the post-pandemic recovery was offset by higher fuel prices, subsidies to railways and a record number of new electric vehicles". It reports that Germany recently "blocked the European Union's plan to phase out internal combustion engines by 2035."
\nAnother Reuters article said greenhouse gas emissions in the Netherlands fell 9 % to 32 % below 1990 levels "as the energy crisis reduced the use of natural gas in industry and buildings, the Dutch National Statistics Office said on Wednesday."<\/p>\n
