The European Parliament voted on Tuesday in favor of a legally binding target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union by 60% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels, according to the results of the vote, made public on Wednesday, Reuters reports.

The EP plenary will formalize its position on this target in another vote, scheduled for Wednesday.

The EP-approved target is more ambitious than the net emission reduction of “at least 55%” by 2030 proposed by the European Commission, which wants the target level to be set by the end of the year, according to Agerpres.

To do this, Parliament will have to agree on the target with EU Member States, which are divided on how ambitious the target should be. The EU’s current target for 2030 is a 40% reduction in emissions.
