Recital 5
(5) In order to contribute to the increased ambition to reduce greenhouse gas net emissions from at least 40 % to at least 55 % below 1990 levels, binding annual targets for net greenhouse gas removals should be set out for each Member State in the land use, land use change and forestry sector in the period from 2026 to 2030 (in analogy to the annual emission allocations set out in Regulation (EU) 2018/842 of the European Parliament and of the Council32 ), resulting in a target of 310 millions of tonnes CO2 equivalent of net removals for the Union as a whole in 2030 and should take into account the principles of sustainable forest management as agreed by Forest Europe and FAO. The methodology used to establish the national targets for 2030 should take into account the average greenhouse gas emissions and removals from the years 2016, 2017 and 2018, reported by each Member State, and reflect the current mitigation performance of the land use, land use change and forestry sector, and each Member State’s share of the managed land area in the Union, taking into account the capacity of that Member State to improve its performance in the sector via land management practices or changes in land use that benefit the climate and biodiversity. __________________ 32Regulation (EU) 2018/842 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 on binding annual greenhouse gas emission reductions by Member States from 2021 to 2030 contributing to climate action to meet commitments under the Paris Agreement and amending Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 (OJ L 156, 19.6.2018, p. 26).

Amendment 39 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10
(10) In order to enhance greenhouse gas removals, individual farmers or forest managers and owners need a direct incentive to store more carbon on their land and their forests while encouraging to implement sustainable forest management practices. EU should base the LULUCF accounting in line with the Article 6 of the Paris Agreement and outcomes of the Glasgow Summit to avoid double counting and enhance the development of robust and harmonized global accounting of carbon removals.. New business models based on carbon farming incentives and on the certification of carbon removals need to be increasingly deployed in the period until 2030. Such incentives and business models will enhance climate mitigation in the bio- economy, including through the use of durable harvested wood products and all bio-based products, while ensuring new innovative solutions such as lignine in batteries, advanced biofuels as well as components and bio-composites in transport sector taking into account the potential of side streams and residues as well as carbon capture and storage technologies, in full respect of ecological principles fostering biodiversity and the circular economy. Hence, new categories of carbon storage products should be introduced in addition to the harvested wood products. The emerging business models, farming and land management practices to enhance removals contribute to a balanced territorial development and economic growth in rural areas. They also create opportunities for new jobs and provide incentives for relevant training, reskilling and upskilling.

Recital 8
(8) The land sector has the potential to become rapidly climate-neutral by 2035 in a cost-effective manner, and subsequently generatthrough reducing emissions, maintaining and enhancing sinks and carbon stocks, replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy from forest biomass and by harnessing the removal potential of organic materials from sustainable mfore greenhouse gas removals than emissionsst management. The bioeconomy and bioenergy are indispensable for a fossil- free economy. A collective commitment aiming to achieve climate-neutrality in the land sector in 2035 at EU level can provide the needed planning certainty to drive land- based mitigation action in the short term, considering that it can take many years for such action to deliver the desired mitigation outcomes. Moreover, the land sector is projected to become the largest sector in the EU greenhouse gas flux profile in 2050. It is therefore particularly important to anchor that sector to a trajectory that can effectively deliver net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. By mid-2024, the Member States should submit their updated integrated national energy and climate plans in accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council34 . The plans should include relevant measures by which each Member State best contributes to the collective target of climate neutrality in the land sector at EU level in 2035. On the basis of these plans, the Commission should propose national targets, ensuring that the Union-wide greenhouse gas emissions and removals in the land use, land use change and forestry sector and the emissions from the agriculture non-CO2 sectors are at least balanced by 2035. Contrary to the EU level target of climate neutrality for the land sector by 2035, such national targets will be binding and enforceable on each Member State. __________________ 34Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 on the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action, amending Regulations (EC) No 663/2009 and (EC) No 715/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Directives 94/22/EC, 98/70/EC, 2009/31/EC, 2009/73/EC, 2010/31/EU, 2012/27/EU and 2013/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, Council Directives 2009/119/EC and (EU) 2015/652 and repealing Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 328, 21.12.2018, p.1).

(13) With the setting of binding national annual targets for greenhouse gas removals based on the reported greenhouse gas emissions and removals from 2026 onwards, the rules for target compliance should be set out. The principles laid down in Regulation (EU) 2018/842 should apply mutatis mutandis, with a penalty for non-compliance calculated in the following way: 108% of the gap between the assigned target and the net removals reported in the given year will be added to the greenhouse gas emission figure reported in the subsequent year by the Member State.Deleted

Recital 9
(9) The accounting rules set out in Articles 6, 7, 8 and 10 of Regulation (EU) 2018/841 were designed to determine the extent to which mitigation performance in the land use, land use change and forestry sector could contribute to the 2030 EU target for reduction of greenhouse gas net emissions of 40 %, which did not include the land use, land use change and forestry sector. In order to simplify the regulatory framework for that sector, the current accounting rules should not apply after 2025, and the compliance with national targets of the Member States should be verified on the basis of reported greenhouse gas emissions and removals. This ensures methodological consistency with Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council35 , Regulation (EU) 2018/842 of the European Parliament and of the Council36 , and the determination of the new target for reduction of greenhouse gas net emissions of at least 55 %, which also includes the land use, land use change and forestry sector). In order to ensure better regulation and a predictable operating environment for industry, the accounting rules only applies to the land use, land use change and forestry sector’s greenhouse gas accounting. __________________ 35Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Councils of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading with the Community and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC (OJ L 275, 25.10.2003, p. 32) as amended by Directive (EU) 2018/410 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 March 2018 amending Directive 2003/87/EC to enhance cost-effective emission reductions and low-carbon investments, and Decision (EU) 2015/1814 (OJ L 76, 19.3.2018, p. 3). 36Regulation (EU) 2018/842 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 on binding annual greenhouse gas emission reductions by Member States from 2021 to 2030 contributing to climate action to meet commitments under the Paris Agreement and amending Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 (OJ L 156, 19.6.2018, p. 26).

(10) In order to enhance greenhouse gas removals, individual farmers or forest managers need a direct incentive to store more carbon on their land and their forests. New business models based on carbon farming incentives and on the certification of carbon removals need to be increasingly deployed in the period until 2030. Such incentives and business models will enhance climate mitigation in the bio- economy, including through the use of durable harvested wood products, in full respect of ecological principles fostering biodiversity and the circular economy. Hence, new categories of carbon storage products should be introduced in addition to the harvested wood products. The European bioeconomy can increase the production of carbon storage products while strengthening carbon sinks and improving forest health. Increasing the usage of carbon storage products is important to replace usage of fossil emission intensive products made from non-renewable resources and to achieve the goals of the European Green Deal. The emerging business models, farming and land management practices to enhance removals contribute to a balanced territorial development and economic growth in rural areas. They also create opportunities for new jobs and provide incentives for relevant training, reskilling and upskilling.

Union should base the LULUCF accounting in line with Article 6 of the Paris Agreement and outcomes of the Glasgow Summit to avoid double counting and enhance the development of robust and harmonized global accounting of carbon removals. New business models based on carbon farming incentives and on the certification of carbon removals need to be increasingly deployed in the period until 2030. Carbon removals should be based on solid financial framework, accounting rules and market based design from public and private resources, whereas CAP-funding must mainly remain targeted for food production and ensuring food security in the Union. Such incentives and business models will enhance climate mitigation in the bio- economy, including through the use of durable harvested wood products and through substitution of fossil-based raw materials, in full respect of ecological principles fostering biodiversity and the circular economy. Hence, new categories of all carbon storage products should be introduced in addition to the harvested wood products all bio-based products, while ensuring new innovative solutions, taking into account the potential of side streams and residues as well as carbon capture and storage technologies.

(10a) In order to provide the necessary financial support for farmers in the Union, Member States, when drafting their respective national Strategic Plans in line with the legal framework for the common agriculture policy (CAP) for the years 2023-2027 within which the support for Strategic Plans is to be drawn up by Member States and financed by the EAGF and by the EAFRD, should set out their specific objectives and concrete actions to ensure the achievement of climate change adaptation and mitigation. This means creating a clear link between LULUCF objectives and substantial financial objectives from the CAP in tailor-made solutions for the farmers in each Member State to select their best possible approach: within eco-schemes and rural development agri- environmental measures or investments, the European Innovation Partnership for Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability (EIP-AGRI), as well as support for farm advisory services. To develop and sustain financial incentives in sufficient quantity and in the long- term, additional budgetary lines need to be unlocked through financial instruments and public funds, such as the LIFE Programme and Horizon Europe.
