"Europe To Reveal UN Climate Deal Pledge on February 25"

"Brussels set to be first bloc to reveal contribution to global emissions cutting deal as next set of UN talks draw close."

"European member states will reveal their collective contribution to a proposed UN climate deal on February 25.

A statement from the European Commission said the bloc would reveal its pledge later this month, well ahead of a deadline agreed by major economies.

The 28-country strong grouping announced it would target 40% greenhouse gas cuts on 1990 levels by 2030 last October, an increase on its 2020 goal."
