The European Parliament has passed a law to restore nature to its natural state. The law was opposed by the Christian Democrats in the European Parliament.
The European Commission said the law was needed to protect the environment from climate change. The bill is expected to be signed into law by the end of the year. It is not yet clear if the law will be implemented in its current form or if it will be changed to make it more palatable to the public in the long-term. The legislation is not expected to have a significant impact on the environment.
