ROME – To set a date “in line with the zero emissions targets for 2050” for the ban on the marketing in Europe of new diesel or petrol cars. This was requested by a group of nine states (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Greece, Ireland, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta and the Netherlands) in a joint declaration. In a few weeks, the European Commission will present a proposal on the new CO2 emission standards. Car-producing countries have not adhered to the demands, which include the ability to act nationally, strengthen charging standards and infrastructure.
“France and Spain are discussing targets for 2040 – said the head of the Permanent Representation of Denmark Elizabeth Hojmark Cukijati, in a debate organized by the European Climate Foundation – Germany also has a new climate policy and I believe that the political situation is very different from that of a few months ago and this makes me optimistic “.
