🇪🇺 We are committed to defending the interests of the EU industry. Today, our proposal to impose provisional countervailing duties on imports of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) from China received the necessary support from EU countries for adoption. These duties follow an investigation that revealed: ➡️ The entire BEV value chain in China is heavily subsidised. ➡️ Imports of Chinese BEVs pose a clear and imminent threat of injury to the EU industry. At the same time, the EU and China are working hard to explore an alternative solution in a WTO-compatible manner, to address the injurious subsidisation.

Meet Euclid, this World Space Week! ༘⋆₊ ⊹★🔭๋࣭ ⭑⋆。˚ Euclid is the powerful European space telescope that will help us solve the riddles of the universe. Operated by the European Space Agency - ESA, it aims to bring astronomers closer than ever to answering a longstanding question: will the universe, which is expanding, do so forever? The space telescope will create the most extensive 3D-map of the universe, by observing the light from galaxies out to 10 billion light-years. Euclid was launched on 1 July 2023, and we already have some visually stunning images that reveal new physical properties of the universe.

Have you ever wondered how much CO2 your next flight will produce? Over 80% of passengers want to know too. Currently, there is no harmonised methodology for estimating flight emissions. This is why we are launching a public consultation to gather feedback on the EU Flight Emissions Label (FEL). The FEL would set out a methodology for estimating flight emissions considering: ✈️aircraft type, 👥 average passenger numbers, 📦 freight volume on board, ⛽ aviation fuel used. This initiative will help passengers make more informed choices about their carbon footprint when booking flights online in the EU. Take active part in the initiative!
