Original: Nordic states oppose relaxing EU carbon market requirements

Nordic countries are opposing moves to loosen requirements within the EU's emissions trading system, the carbon market that sets a price on pollution for heavy industry and power generation. The governments argue that weakening the market's rules would undermine Europe's climate targets and slow the transition away from fossil fuels, setting up a clash with member states seeking relief for industry.
