This paper analyses the evolution of the new environmental policy of the European Union in the context of the efforts undertaken to moderate the negative effects of climate change. It describes all the activities in the European Union designed to implement new tools of the EU environmental policy, such as low carbon economy technologies, tools that improve the efficiency of managing the limited natural resources, the environmentally friendly transport package, etc. All of them are aimed at laying the foundations of the circular economy, which may also be referred to as a closed-loop economy, i.e., an economy that does not generate excessive waste and whereby any waste becomes a resource. (original abstract)

Celem artykułu jest poddanie analizie procesu ewolucji nowej polityki środowiskowej Unii Europejskiej w kontekście zamierzeń niwelowania negatywnych skutków zmian klimatycznych . W artykule zaprezentowane zostały aktywności podejmowane na poziomie UE ukierunkowane na wdrażanie nowych instrumentów tej polityki, w tym zwłaszcza dotyczących rozwoju technologii niskoemisyjnych, wdrażania instrumentów ukierunkowanych na zarządzanie ograniczonymi surowcami naturalnymi, na rozwój przyjaznego dla środowiska i bardziej efektywnego transportu i in. Wszystkie te działania mają na celu ukierunkowanie rozwoju gospodarki europejskiej na osiągnięcie końcowego efektu, jakim jest gospodarka cyrkularna, ukierunkowana na maksymalizację wydajności zasobów i na minimalizację wydobycia zasobów i powstawania odpadów.
