Amendment 35 #
Motion for a resolution
Recital C
C. whereas transport is the only major economic sector in the Union where greenhouse gas emissions have increased since 1990, and even with the measures currently planned, emission levels will remain above 1990 levels in 2030; whereas inland freight transport could increase by over 50 % between now and 2050;he fuel efficiency of transport increased considerably over the last decades while the Euro class regulation successfully decreased road borne pollutants at the same time; Transport got safer for all Europeans and due to deregulation and technological progress all Europeans could afford to increase their mobility. The backside of this positive development was an overall increase of CO2 emissions from the sector, which needs to be addressed until 2050 while at the same time the achievements and benefits for our Citizens have to be safeguarded.
