Such a plan was required under EU law by the end of 2019.<\/p>\n<p>While the case was going through the courts, Spain agreed a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2020\/05\/18\/spain-unveils-climate-law-cut-emissions-net-zero-2050\/\">long-term decarbonisation strategy<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2021\/05\/14\/spain-end-fossil-fuel-production-2042-new-climate-law\/\">passed its first climate law<\/a> &#8211; a decade after it was first called for &#8211; which included a net zero target for 2050. It also finally approved a national energy and climate plan in March 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Campaigners dropped part of their claim about the existence of the plan, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oxfamintermon.org\/es\/nota-de-prensa\/el-tribunal-supremo-ante-un-fallo-hist%C3%B3rico-el-juicio-por-el-clima-por-fin-tendra-sentencia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">saying<\/a> it \u201crepresented an important advance compared to the policies of previous governments\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>But they continued to argue that the plan was too weak and that the goal of cutting emissions by \u201cat least\u201d 23% by 2030 compared with 1990 was not consistent with the Paris Agreement\u2019s 1.5C global warming threshold. They called instead for a goal of at least 55%, consistent with the <a href=\"https:\/\/climateactiontracker.org\/countries\/eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wider EU target for that year<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Together with campaigners from Coordinadora de ONG para el Desarrollo they <a href=\"http:\/\/climatecasechart.com\/non-us-case\/greenpeace-v-spain-ii\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">filed a second case<\/a> making these arguments.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 18.72px;\">Compromised objectives<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">The Spanish government, in its responses to the court, stressed that the Paris Agreement did not impose specific levels of emission cuts on state signatories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It said the EU target of a 55% cut by 2030 was a bloc average, which had to take into account cost efficiency, justice and individual state economies.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/climatechangenews.com\/2023\/06\/29\/norway-fossil-fuels-oil-gas-fields\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Norway approves<\/strong> oil and gas fields despite Cop fossil phase-out push<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Spain said the 55% EU-level cut had been pushed for by a group of like-minded countries, including Spain, which it described as \u201cambition leaders\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It also claimed that the invasion of Ukraine had caused a serious energy crisis which would \u201cundoubtedly\u201d compromise climate objectives.<\/p>\n<p>This has been contracted by the International Energy Agency&#8217;s head Fatih Birol who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iea.org\/commentaries\/where-things-stand-in-the-global-energy-crisis-one-year-on\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> that &#8220;the crisis is set to accelerate the clean energy transition&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Javier Andaluz, of Ecologistas en Acci\u00f3n, did not expect the latest version of the climate plan to include such a big jump in the 2030 target but said it still falls well short of Spain\u2019s fair share based on climate science and its contribution to global emissions. From a climate justice perspective, he maintains \u201cSpain has to lose at least 55%\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Spain&#8217;s Supreme Court voted on the pair of lawsuits last week, although its decision is not yet public.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2023\/06\/28\/uk-climate-change-commitee-aid-cuts\/\"><strong>UK off<\/strong> course for net zero, its advisers say<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The lawsuits are the first climate litigation against Spain and campaigners hope to build on previous legal successes against European states, including in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2020\/02\/26\/netherlands-faces-pressure-global-test-case-deep-emissions-cuts-2020\/\">Netherlands<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2021\/04\/30\/top-court-rules-german-climate-law-falls-short-historic-victory-youth\/\">Germany<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rfi.fr\/en\/france\/20210203-landmark-lawsuit-finds-france-guilty-of-climate-failures-government-laffairedusiecle-emissions-greenpeace-oxfam-environment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">France<\/a>. In Germany, the landmark ruling led the government to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2021\/05\/05\/germany-raises-ambition-net-zero-2045-landmark-court-ruling\/\">raise its 2030 emissions target to 65%<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But Ana Barreira, founding director of environmental law organisation IIDMA, does not think there is a strong legal case against Spain. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She pointed out that, s<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ince the Rio Earth Summit in 1992 governments have generally accepted the principle that they <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2013\/09\/17\/developing-nations-equally-to-blame-for-climate-change-report\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">have \u201ccommon but differentiated responsibilities\u201d<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to protect the environment, a principle that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/unfccc.int\/blog\/the-explainer-the-paris-agreement\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">carried through to the Paris Agreement<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barreira added that the EU accepted Spain\u2019s original climate plan and its contribution to the bloc&#8217;s emission cuts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The slow pace of developing climate policies in Spain was largely due to deadlocks in parliament where for months no political party held a majority.<\/p>\n<p>The incumbent government has done a substantial amount of work over the past two years. Spain is about to take over presidency of the EU for the next six months, and has made efforts to accelerate the climate transition <a href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/my-europe\/2023\/06\/15\/spain-will-soon-helm-the-presidency-of-the-eu-council-here-are-its-priorities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">one of its key priorities<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The government has also been forthright in attributing extreme weather and disasters on the ground to climate change.<\/p>\n<h3>More drought<\/h3>\n<p>The country is currently in the grip of a long-running drought that threatens its agriculture, industry and domestic water resources. Minister for ecological transition Teresa Ribera <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eldiario.es\/sociedad\/medidas-paliar-efectos-sequia-ayudas-directas-agricultores-obras-inmediatas_1_10195360.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recently said climate change<\/a> was leading to \u201ca much greater incidence of more frequent and intense episodes\u201d of such episodes.<\/p>\n<p>Spain is particularly vulnerable to global warming. This year\u2019s spring was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climate-x.com\/articles\/industry\/thirst-for-change-unraveling-spain-droughts-and-beyond\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hottest ever<\/a> &#8211; a record made \u201calmost impossible\u201d without climate change, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldweatherattribution.org\/extreme-april-heat-in-spain-portugal-morocco-algeria-almost-impossible-without-climate-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">scientific attribution study<\/a>.

summer\u2019s heatwave<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Andaluz said the impacts of climate change were already \u201cquite clear\u201d in Spain, and there was a widespread acceptance of the causes.<\/p>\n<p>However, the issue of water management to tackle drought was an issue during regional and municipal elections earlier this year and is likely to crop up again ahead of a general election in December.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The government has published a draft revised version of its climate plan, as it awaits a Supreme Court ruling on the legality of its old
