EU strategy on Climate Change and Sustainablity

The EU has recently published a reflection on about the EU Sustainable Development Strategy (SDS) and the way in which this strategy should evolve in the future and be better aligned with other cross-cutting EU strategies.

The Commission particularly stresses the need to find greater synergy with the Lisbon Strategy for growth and jobs, which will be reviewed in 2010. The report calls for better coordination and linkage between climate change, energy, financial and social sustainability - policy areas covered by both strategies.
