Amendment 69 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 9
(9) Member States should comply with the emission reduction commitments set out in this Directive for 2020 and 2030. So as to ensure demIn order to limit the atmospheric emissions of air pollutants and to effectively constrable progress towards the 2030 commitments, Member States should meet intermediate emission levels in 2025, set on the basis of a linear trajectory between their emission levels for 2020 and those defined by the emission reduction commitments for 2030, unless this would entail disproportionate costs. Where the 2025 emissions cannot be so limited, Member States should explain the reasons in their reports under this Directiveibute to the Union objective of achieving air quality that does not give rise to significant negative impacts on and risks to health, and to reducing the levels deposition of acidifying and eutrophying pollutants below critical loads and levels, binding national emission reduction commitments are set in this Directive for 2020, 2025 and 2030.

Amendment 127 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 a (new)
This Directive aims at limiting atmospheric emissions of acidifying and eutrophying pollutants, ozone precursors, primary particulate matter and precursors of secondary particulate matter and other air pollutants, thereby contributing to: (a) the Union's long-term objective of achieving levels of air quality that do not give rise to significant negative impacts on and risks to human health and the environment, in line with guidelines of the World Health Organisation; (b) the achievement of EU biodiversity and ecosystem objectives by reducing the levels and deposition of acidifying and eutrophying pollutants, and other pollutants, including ground-level ozone, below critical loads and levels; (c) the achievement of the air quality objectives set in Union legislation; (d) the mitigation of climate change impacts by reducing emissions of short- lived climate pollutants; (e) the improvement of air quality globally.

Proposal for a directive
Article 4 – paragraph 1
1. Member States shall, as a minimum, limit their annual anthropogenic emissions of sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), volatile organic compounds other than methane (NMVOC), ammonia (NH3), particulate matter (PM2,5) and, methane (CH4) and mercury (Hg) in accordance with the national emission reduction commitments applicable from 2020, 2025 and 2030, as laid down in Annex II.

Amendment 159 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 4 – paragraph 2
2. Without prejudice to paragraph 1, Member States shall take all the necessary measures not entailing disproportionate costs to limit their 2025 anthropogenic emissions of SO2, NOx, NMVOC, NH3, PM2,5 and CH4. The levels of those emissions shall be determdeleted Or. en (Linked on the basis of fuels sold, by a linear reduction trajectory established between their emission levels for 2020 and the emission levels defined by the emission reduction commitments for 2030. Where the emissions for 2025 cannot be limited in accordance with the determined trajectory, the Member States shall explain the reasons in their reports submitted to the Commission in accordance with Article 9. to proposed national ERCs for 2025.)
