Turkey's Green Taxonomy sparks criticism ahead of COP31

Original: # Turkey Turkey's Green Taxonomy paradox ahead of COP31: ‘Nuclear energy and fossil gas are unacceptable’ Turkey's Green

Turkey's Green Taxonomy Regulation has come into force just ahead of the COP31 climate summit, but critics are objecting to its contents. The regulation includes nuclear energy, fossil gas and carbon-intensive manufacturing sectors, which opponents say are unacceptable under a genuine green framework. Environmental groups and commentators are calling out what they see as a contradiction between Turkey's climate commitments and the sectors the new taxonomy classifies as sustainable.

Why now: The taxonomy took effect just before COP31, drawing criticism for labelling nuclear and fossil gas as green.
