German Chancellor Angela Merkel's government has agreed to set a price on carbon emissions while aiming to achieve the goal of climate, so that until 2030 it can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 55 percent, respectively, reach the 1990 level.
The compliance with this package, expected to cost 54 billion euros by 2023, has been achieved as protesters have emerged in 500 German towns and towns seeking measures about climate change.
The key to the deal is setting a price for carbon dioxide emissions in transport and buildings.
Tax taxes on long train travel are expected to drop as air transport will increase.
“We are not living steadily today”, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said before journalists, while thousands have protested.
However, the movement, Friday for the Future, has immediately rejected this deal of Europe's largest economy, considering it unadequate.
