Em 2025, Portugal teve o segundo maior aumento de emissões na UE
In 2025, Portugal experienced the second highest increase in greenhouse gas emissions in the EU, rising by 4.2%, primarily due to land use changes and wildfires. The report highlights unprecedented wildfire damage across Europe, particularly in the Iberian Peninsula, contributing to record emissions. While emissions decreased in 19 EU member states, Portugal's rise was only surpassed by Italy. The EU aims for a 55% reduction in emissions by 2030, with current levels 39% below 1990 figures. Renewable energy accounted for 36.7% of Portugal's energy consumption, still short of its 51% target for 2030. Nine member states, including Germany and Italy, are lagging in meeting their emissions targets, prompting the EU to seek corrective measures.
