He adds that Sweden may well end up with both an Environment Minister and a Climate Minister.
A hot summer is followed by a heated autumn in the EU, as climate measures clash with demands for cheaper energy for households and industry. ´We must wake up,´ says EU Environment Commissioner Jessika Roswall.
