Article 2 – paragraph 2 a (new)
(2a) With regard to the Paris Agreement, reference is made to the special role played by agriculture and forestry, because only a vital and productive agriculture and forestry sector is able to provide the population with high quality and safe food in sufficient quantities and at affordable prices and with renewable raw materials for all purposes of the bioeconomy. The storage and sink function of agriculture and forestry must be preserved and credited to the sector itself and must not serve as a catchall for any missed emission reduction targets from other sectors (e.g. industry, transport).
