Proposal for a directive
Recital 7
(7) Member States should implement this Directive in a way that contributes effectively to the meeting of the Union's long-term objective on air quality established as to not give rise to significant negative impacts and risks to human health and the environment as supported by the guidelines of the World Health Organisation; and of the Union's biodiversity and ecosystem protection objectives by reducing the levels and deposition of acidifying, eutrophifying and ozone air pollution below critical loads and levels as set out by the LRTAP Convention.

Amendment 25 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 8 a (new)
(8a) The gap closure between the baseline scenario and the maximum technically feasible reductions scenario should be 75%, since this is identified as the most economically optimal ambition level according to the Commission's own impact assessment, also confirmed by a complementary impact assessment undertaken at the request of the European Parliament's Environment Committee.

Amendment 28 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 9
(9) Member States should comply with the emission reduction commitments set out in this Directive for 2020, 2025 and 2030. So as to ensure demonstrable 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 Directive.

Amendment 33 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 11
(11) In order to promote cost-effective achievement of the national emission reduction commitments and of the intermediate emission levels, Member States should be entitled to account for emission reductions from international maritime traffic if emissions from that sector are lower than the levels of emissions that would result from compliance with Union law standards, including the sulphur limits for fuels set in Directive 1999/32/EC of the Council.21 Member States should also have the possibility to jointly meet their commitments and intermediate emission levels regarding methane (CH4) and of making use of Decision n°406/2009/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council for so doing.22 For the purpose of checking compliance with their national emission ceilings, emission reduction commitments and intermediate emission levels, Member States could adjust their national emission inventories in view of improved scientific understanding and methodologies regarding emissions. The Commission could object to the use of any of these flexibilities by a Member State, should the conditions set out in this Directive not be met. __________________ 21Council Directive 1999/32/EC of 26 April 1999 relating to a reduction in the sulphur content of certain liquid fuels and amending Directive 93/12/EEC (OJ L 121, 11.5.1999, p. 13). 22Decision n°406/2009/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the effort of Member States to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions to meet the Community’s greenhouse gas emission reduction commitments up to 2020 (OJ L 140, 5.6.2009, p. 136).

Amendment 37 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 12
(12) Member States should adopt and implement a national air pollution control programme with a view to meeting their emission reduction requirements and intermediate emission levels, and to contributing effectively to the achievement of the Union air quality objectives. To this effect, Member States should take account of the need to reduce emissions in zones and agglomerations affected by excessive air pollutant concentrations and/or in those that contribute significantly to air pollution in other zones and agglomerations, including in neighbouring countries. National air pollution control programmes should, to that end, contribute to the successful implementation of air quality plans enacted under Article 23 of Directive 2008/50/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council.23 __________________ 23 Directive 2008/50/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2008 on ambient air quality and cleaner air in Europe (OJ L 152, 11.6.2008, p. 1).

(8a) In order to reduce emissions from maritime transport, full and timely implementation of limits set within the International Maritime Organisation as well as strict enforcement of the EU Sulphur Directive must be ensured. Further action to control shipping emissions is also needed.
