Abstract

The paper analyses the implementation of the environmental dimension of Agenda 2030 in the EU. The introductory section on UN Agenda 2030 - Environmental and Climate Change offers a detailed overview of the objectives, covering the environmental dimension of Agenda 2030 in a narrower sense, while the next section focuses on analysing the implementation of these goals in the EU through documents, strategies and indicators within Eurostat annual reports. The paper concludes that, despite the EU's commitment to environmental policies, especially in the context of climate change, further attention needs to be focused to implementing two elements: the climate change adaptation process and the proactive role of the EU in global climate action.
