SUMMARY:
The LifeETX Layman’s report includes a short introduction to the project, the main project findings and recommendations, and a definition of the project’s climate mitigation and adaptation impacts. It also discusses the cost-benefit analysis of the results and their transferability to other projects.
From its inception in July 2021 to its conclusion in June 2024, the LIFE ETX project aimed to ensure that the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) became an increasingly effective tool for decarbonisation benefitting citizens and the climate.
Through a diverse set of activities, including publishing scientific assessments, delivering capacity building workshops and creating forums for information sharing and collaboration, LIFE ETX empowered civil society to engage in the reform and to monitor this technical yet extremely important climate policy instrument.
