Inaddition, it contains an overall picture of emission trends and a follow-up on the Government'sclimate policy action plan as well as its climate report to Parliament. Over the past year, implementation of the policy has been heavily influenced by the ongoing pandemic. Society's ability to address the coronavirus crisis and its long-term economic and socialeffects influences conditions for managing the climate transition in several ways. In this year's report, the Climate Policy Council has therefore chosen to place a special focus on the Government's policy response to the pandemic and on how crisis and recovery policies affect ourchances of achieving climate policy goals.At the time of writing this report, the pandemic is still ongoing. As yet, there is no definitive picture of the many events, connections and consequences that are relevant in this context.

The fact that the Climate Policy Council is already presenting thisreport about the crisis is in line with the Council's ambition to provide relevant and useful policy input for the Government and Parliament. The Climate Policy Council would like to express its sincere thanks to the more than 100 organisations, researchers, experts and practitioners who contributed to this report.
