(8a) The climate neutrality objective represents a huge opportunity to address the challenges of the 21st century in a strategic manner. It provides an opportunity for the EU to step up its action and reap the benefits of the first mover advantage by leading in clean technologies and creating new jobs, taking into account gender balance. Opportunities are emerging from the timely replacement of ageing infrastructure and assets with others compatible with the deep decarbonisation objective.

(12) The Union should aim to achieve a balance between anthropogenic economy- wide emissions and removals, through natural and technological solutions, of greenhouse gases domestically within the Union by 2050and at Member State level by 2050 at the latest. The Union-wide 2050 climate-neutrality objective should be pursued by all Member States collectively, involving also the regional and local policy levels, and the Member States, the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission should take the necessary measures to enable its achievement. Measures at Union level will constitute an important part of the measures needed to achieve the objective also at Member State level in a cost-effective, just and socially balanced way, boosting economic competitiveness and job creation, taking into account gender balance and leaving no one behind. After 2050, the Union and all Member States should continue efforts to further reduce emissions so as to ensure that removals of greenhouse gases exceed emissions.
