Green groups slam Commission's 'poor' record on environment

摘要

While the current European Commission's term only ends in 2014, ten environmental groups have already given the institution low scores for its environmental track record.They say that the Commission is falling behind in the race to create sustainable long-term prosperity in Europe and is even less environmentally friendly than the previous Commission (Barroso I). "Unless it changes track, the Barroso II Commission could have one of the worst ever environmental records," says the Green 10 Coalition.
