Amendments (8)

Amendment 67 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 8 a (new)
(8a) Since, in the long term, CO2- neutral aviation is possible only if biofuels are used to some extent, the Union should take account of that fact within its renewables policy in general, and biofuels policy in particular, and establish an environment in which a sufficient share of sustainable biofuels is available for aviation.

Amendment 69 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 9 a (new)
(9a) It is accepted that climate- damaging aviation emissions produce more than CO2 effects. Directive 2008/101/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council1a contained a Commission undertaking to submit an appropriate proposal on nitrogen oxides in 2008. Despite the technical and political difficulties involved, the Commission should speed up its work in this connection. __________________ 1aDirective 2008/101/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008, amending Directive 2003/87/EC so as to include aviation activities in the scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community (OJ L 8, 13.1.2009, p. 3).
