Summary/Abstract: The starting point of the article is highlighting the situation in which we are positioned following the effects of global warming, becoming more and more visible. In the current context, the achievement of climate neutrality, the initiation of support measures as part of the transition to a sustainable economy, which must not be realized at the expense of future generations, is a major necessity. The presentation of the European legislative framework regarding the achievement of climate neutrality, proposes an intersectoral vision that aims to move from an economy with low carbon emissions to a higher stage, the achievement of climate neutrality, which will allow the member states to identify and solve, in a unitary way and in a real time horizon, of climate problems. Achieving climate neutrality is of major importance, it will strengthen resilience to climate shocks as well as boost Europe's position as a world leader. A whole range of tools have been mobilized, which stand out as a historic and unique proposal that reflects the scale of the challenge we face. Finally, we highlight the consequences of the mentioned proposals, aiming at the active contribution to the achievement of the objective of climate neutrality, which is identified as having a central role in the current European climate framework.
