The EU's environmental policy is under threat

Latvia is the sixth EU member state to have filed a law suit against the European Commission to contest the European system of exchanging quotas of greenhouse gas emissions (ETS, the Emissions Trading Scheme). Thus it is joining Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Estonia. "These countries consider it discriminatory to have enforced upon them limits that were not imposed on other western countries when they were developing", explains the daily. "The EU, as was decided at the last G8 summit in Germany, wants to lead the struggle against global warming. It wants to convince the big polluters, like the United States ... or China to adopt constraining resolutions to slow down global warming. But Europe's authority may well suffer from the fact that some of its members are using arguments similar to those used by developing countries elsewhere on the planet to refuse resolutions for the reduction of pollutant gases."
