European Automakers Make Last-Ditch Effort in Brussels as 2035 CO2 Limits Loom As the European Union's 2035 carbon emissions targets draw near, the continent's major automakers are set to converge on Brussels in a desperate bid to secure crucial concessions. The proposed regulations, aimed at reducing the bloc's carbon footprint, have sparked heated debate among industry leaders, who argue that the current limits are unfeasible and may force manufacturers to abandon production in the EU.
