Amendment 11 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 2
(2) Although emissions of methane are not known to have a direct harmful effect on human health, methane is a strong greenhouse gas. Therefore, in line with the Communication of the Commission on the application and future development of Community legislation concerning vehicle emissions from light-duty vehicles and access to repair and maintenance information (Euro 5 and 6)2 and with Article 14(1) of Regulation (EC) 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council3, the Commission should consider including methane emissions in the calculation of CO2 emissions. __________________ 2 3 Regulation (EC) 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2007 on type approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information (OJ L 171, 2deleted OJ C 182, 19.67.20078, p. 1)7.
