For each target, the EU have set up objectives to improve air quality:
* '''Targets for 2020'''
''- “Reducing greenhouse gases by at least 20% compared to 1990 levels - 20% of energy from renewable sources - 20% energy efficiency improvement”''<ref name="strategies" />
* '''Targets for 2030'''
''- “40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions - At least 27% EU energy from renewables - Increase energy efficiency by 27-30% - 15% electricity interconnection (i.e. 15% of electricity generated in the EU can be transported to other EU countries)”''<ref name="strategies" />
* '''Targets for 2050'''
''- “An 80-95% cut in greenhouse gases compared with 1990 levels.”''<ref name="strategies" />
