A total of \u20ac65 billion is to be funded by revenues from EU emissions trading. The rest is to be co-financed by the member states.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Assumptions that Germany would lose funds as a result of the delay are completely unfounded,&#8221; the Environment Ministry emphasized.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The European Commission and national governments would ensure that the Social Climate Fund could start on time, it said. The aim is to present the German plan before the end of this year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The commission did not comment on Monday on the possible consequences of missing the deadline. &#8220;We first want to wait for the deadline to have passed and we will then move on to the consequences,&#8221; a Commission spokeswoman told dpa.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Lisa Badum, climate policy spokeswoman for the Green Party in the German Bundestag, reacted with outrage to the missed deadline. &#8220;This is a slap in the face for consumers, who are already struggling with rising living costs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/german-government-misses-deadline-billions-193031448.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yahoo is using AI to generate takeaways from this article.
