The present report aims to build on the EEA's Environmental indicator report 2012, providing a more detailed overview of the key objectives and targets in EU environmental policy and for the period 2010–2050. It focuses on selected environmental and resource policy areas, specifically: • energy;• greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and ozone‐depleting substances;• air quality and air pollution;• transport sector emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants;• waste;• water;• sustainable consumption and production (SCP) ;• chemicals;• biodiversity and land use. review is based on a broad analysis of the EU legislation in force and the main political and strategic documents of the last decade. The most important sources include the European's 'Summaries of EU legislation', the websites of the Commission's directorates-general (for environment, mobility and transport, energy, climate action, etc. ) and EEA. For three of the policy areas — energy, air pollution waste — the review of targets and objectives is complemented with a brief assessment of the trends of key indicators and the distance to associated EU targets and objectives.
