7 Amendments of Daniela RONDINELLI related to 2019/2712(RSP)
Amendment 16 #
Recital B
B. whereas on 6 March 2015, the EU and its Member States submitted its INDC to the UNFCCC, which commits to a binding target of at least a 40% domestic reduction in GHG emissions by 2030 compared to 1990 levels; whereas, however, this objective is insufficient to maintain global warming within the limits required by the Paris Agreements and it is therefore necessary to establish an emissions reduction target of 65% by 2030;
Amendment 19 #
Recital C a (new)
Ca. Whereas, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), global fossil fuel subsidies remained large at $4.7 trillion in 2015 and are projected at $5.2 trillion in 2017, which equals to 6.5 % of GDP; whereas, in January 2019 the European Commission estimated that fossil fuel subsidies provided by EU governments between 2008 and 2016 were about €54-55billion per year.
Amendment 112 #
Paragraph 12
12. Believes that, as a means to further ensure increased stability for markets, it will also be beneficial for the EU to establish a further interimn emission reduction target of at least 65% by 2030 and an interim objective by 2040 that can provide additional stability and ensure that the long-term 2050 target is met;
Amendment 117 #
Paragraph 12 a (new)
12a. Calls on Member States to take concrete actions to phase out fossil fuels subsidies by 2020,which are a main cause of climate change, this would free up resources that can be used to achieve a sustainable and zero net emission society by 2050;
Amendment 118 #
Paragraph 12 a (new)
12a. Believes that the investments and tax measures put in place to combat climate change must be excluded from the calculation of the budget deficit and public debt of the Member States;
Amendment 119 #
Paragraph 12 b (new)
12b. Considers the promotion of plant- based diets as a way to fight climate change, deforestation and pollution caused by intensive farming;
Amendment 220 #
Paragraph 28
28. Regrets that the transport sector is the only sector in which emissions have grown since 1990; stresses that this is not compatible with long-term sustainable development, which instead requires reductions in emissions from all sectors of society at a great and faster rate; recalls that the transport sector will need to be fully decarbonised by 2050; notes that the Commission’s analysis shows that the current global targets and measures envisaged by the International Maritime Organisation and the International Civil Aviation Organisation respectively, even if fully implemented, fall short of the necessary emissions reductions, and that significant further action consistent with the economy-wide objective of net-zero emissions is needed; considers that in order to ensure the consistency of NDCs with the economy-wide commitments required by the Paris Agreement, Parties should be encouraged to include emissions from international shipping and aviation and to agree and implement measures at international, regional and national level to address emissions from these sectors. Considers that Emission Control Areas (ECAs), or Sulfur Emission Control Areas (SECAs), where stricter controls are established to minimise emissions from ships should be further promoted at international level and new areas should be added, such as in the Mediterranean;
