With their ambitious climate neutrality targets, the EU by 2050 and Germany by 2045 face enormous challenges for society, administration, business and science. This is because the transformation to a climate-neutral industrialized country requires a transformation in all areas. To meet this complex challenge, the BDI proposes a broad mix of instruments in climate, energy, transport and industrial policy. The BDI study "Climate Paths 2.0" shows that an industry with its technologies is the key pioneer for a successful climate protection.
