The European Union continues to loosen its climate action regulations for businesses. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that this month, the Commission will propose amendments to the carbon emission reduction rules for European car manufacturers.
The proposal seeks an additional two-year compliance grace period, giving manufacturers more time to adjust and avoid hefty fines.
