According to the department headed by Spanish vice-president and minister for Ecological Transition, Teresa Ribera, Spain is a firm defender of the green taxonomy as a key element for common references that can be used by investors to reach climate neutrality by the year 2050. But the minister warned that nuclear and natural gas would be a step backwards if investments can continue to be made in one or the other country, despite the fact that they are not green or sustainable. She responded to the draft proposed by the European Commission, saying it doesn't make sense and sends the wrong signals for the transition of the EU as a whole. Spain has said nuclear energy and natural gas can play a role in the transition to decarbonisation and reaching climate neutrality by the year 2050. They should be treated separately and not as green, where there are other key energies for decarbonisation and without risk or environmental damage, according to Ms Ribera. The Green Pact regulatory framework states that the green taxonomy regulation aims to steer companies and investors in their decarbonisation plans.
It aims to find economic activities that are sustainable, as well as identify sectors that help with CO2, methane and other gases linked to climate change. The regulatory framework is trying to give funding boosts to the sectors that are considered vital to reaching the goal of climate neutrality by 2050. The taxonomy of Spain must be credible, useful, and based on scientific evidence. According to the Ministry of Trade, the key to considering an economic activity, sector or technology as 'green includes its substantial contribution to the main environmental goals of the EU, such as mitigating climate change.

CAROLE MALONE OPINION Ms Lemke said: "I think it is absolutely wrong that the European Commission intends to include nuclear energy in the EU classification for sustainable economic activities, because this is a form of energy that could lead to devastating environmental disasters and leaves large amounts of hazardous and highly radioactive waste for thousands of years, so it cannot be sustainable." There is no possible approval of the new proposals of the Commission, from our point of view.
