time. Perhaps after 2020, the EU adopts integrated ways to improve energy saving
with increasing use of renewable energies by taking into account the issues arising in
this research and by integrating the components of the socio-ecological complex
without forgetting the stimulation of innovation and technical progress that would
could harmonize the relationships between the socioeconomic system and the
natural environment. It is recommended that Member States should be genuinely
accountable for achieving more ambitious targets in relation to the absolute maximum value of each Member State’s emissions in the past period by reconsidering
current targets and reflecting on the findings of this research.
