Climate laws pending Environment Council approval

For the next meeting of EU environment ministers on June 28, the French presidency is seeking agreement on several pieces of legislation from the Fit for 55 package. As “Contexte” reports, there could possibly be general orientations on several climate dossiers: the Emissions Trading System (ETS), including rules for the aviation sector, the Market Stability Reserve and the Social Climate Fund, the Effort Sharing Regulation (ESR) on burden sharing in the buildings and transport sectors, the LULUCF Regulation on natural carbon sinks and the controversial Regulation on fleet limits for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles.
