Amendment 55 #
Motion for a resolution
Recital B
Recital B
B. whereas sustainable carbon cycles must be considered in a holistic manner, as increasing carbon sinks and replacing fossil carbon as much as possible will require more biomass production, thuswill affecting the land sector; whereas carbon farming schemes can be part of an incentivising market- based toolbox for delivering on climate objectives;

Amendment 231 #
8b. Recognises the value of industrial solutions in carbon sequestration as well as their contribution in reducing carbon emissions; emphasizes that nature-based solutions such as diverse old-growth forests, rewetting of drained wetlands and peatlands, agroforestry and reforestation should be prioritised and incentivised as carbon farming initiatives should not only favour industrial farming models;
Amendment 235 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 8 c (new)
Paragraph 8 c (new)
8c. Stresses that the impact of nature- based and industrial carbon removal solutions on balancing greenhouse gas emissions is limited, and should not come at the expense of ambitious climate mitigation goals, which require substantial reduction in emissions and not only offsetting;
