LONDON (Reuters) – The European Commission may recalibrate its planned \u201ctaxonomy\u201d or guide for people that want to invest in climate-friendly assets after a huge public response, its financial services chief said on Monday.<\/p>\n

Mairead McGuinness said the EU executive has received 46,000 replies to a public consultation on its template for fleshing out a law on taxonomy that it due to come into practical effect in 2022.<\/p>\n

It sets out a system for classifying what activities may and many not be deemed to be sustainable in climate terms to help the shift to a low carbon economy.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would be useful to take a step back and to look at what the taxonomy is, and what it is not,\u201d McGuinness told the European Parliament.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not a mandatory list of activities that investors have to invest in,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

The first batch of measures to implement the taxonomy needs to be delayed given that it goes further than some existing legislation and EU policy, she said.<\/p>\n

She said 98% of the responses to the public consultation were from citizens asking the European Commission not to break the taxonomy\u2019s alignment with the EU\u2019s Green Deal targets for cutting carbon emmissions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Commission will consider recalibrating the technical screening criteria where serious concerns are raised, but we don\u2019t want to break the link with science or the alignment with Green Deal targets,\u201d McGuinness said.<\/p>\n

The Commission has asked the Sustainable Finance platform for further input on how the taxonomy could help business with their transition to lower carbon emissions, she said.<\/p>\n
