How did the actions of European automakers and the easing of EU emissions regulations affect the growth of the EV market?

The EU's January 1st mandate requiring a 15% reduction in fleet-wide CO2 emissions from 2021 levels significantly impacted the EV market. To avoid penalties, automakers offered attractive leasing deals and discounts, leading to a surge in corporate EV sales, especially in Germany. This regulatory pressure, while effective, has since been eased by the European Council for the next three years.

How have market forces and policy failures contributed to the current housing crisis in the EU?

Rising housing costs, exceeding inflation (36% in 2023), stem from market forces and insufficient construction since the 2008 financial crisis, according to Housing Europe's Sorcha Eduards. This has widened the gap between housing costs and income, exacerbating the crisis and impacting young adults' ability to live independently. The overreliance on market forces has created a situation where housing affordability is severely compromised.
