In view of the Union's objective to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the significant contribution that road transport fuels make to those emissions, Member States are, pursuant to Article 7a(2) of Directive 98/70/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council , to require suppliers of fuel or energy to reduce by at least 6 % by 31 December 2020 the life cycle greenhouse gas emissions per unit of energy of fuels used in the Union by road vehicles, non-road mobile machinery, agricultural and forestry tractors and recreational craft when not at sea.

In particular, the Commission should be empowered to adopt implementing measures concerning the mechanism to monitor and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, to adapt the methodological principles and values necessary for assessing whether sustainability criteria have been fulfilled in relation to biofuels, to establish criteria and geographic ranges for highly biodiverse grassland, to revise the limit for the MMT content of fuel and to adapt to technical and scientific progress the methodology for the calculation of lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions, the permitted analytical methods related to the fuel specifications and the vapour pressur ...[+++]e waiver permitted for petrol containing bioethanol.

Mr. Harney, your point about the reduction in fuel economy in relation to greenhouse gases was important, and new to this table.

* Renewable energy programmes; * Programmes regarding Combined Heat and Power, energy efficiency improvements in the transformation sector and fuel switching to less GHG emitting sources; * Energy efficiency standards and improvements for household appliances, home entertainment equipment, office equipment, lighting products, space heating equipment and air compressors; * Energy efficiency improvements and GHG emission reductions in heavy industry (i.a. iron/steel, chemicals, non-ferrous metals, non-metallic minerals, pulp and paper) and large combustion plants; * Energy efficiency in buildings; * Progressive reduction/removal ...[+++]of fossil fuel and other subsidies, tax schemes and regulations which counteract an efficient use of energy; * Increase of minimum tax levels as a way to reduce GHG emissions and improve energy efficiency".

The AOSIS protocol proposal and the German delegation's suggestions will as well as others form part of the negotiations (c) Report of the ad hoc group to the second Conference of the Parties on the state of negotiations on the protocol; completion of the negotiations six months before the third Conference of the Parties in order to allow adoption during that Conference (d) Inclusion in the ad hoc group's working programme, in cooperation with the other subsidiary bodies, of an analysis or assessment to identify potential and possible policies and measures for achieving limitations and progressive reductions of greenhouse gas emissions ...[+++](e) Consideration of the following key elements for inclusion in the protocol: (i) comprehensiveness of the protocol, covering all greenhouse gases, their sources and sinks and all relevant sectors; (ii) common but differentiated responsibilities of Parties in line with their respective capabilities and possibilities: - lead responsibility of Annex I Parties through specific commitments, individually or jointly, strengthening and enlarging those undertaken in Article 4(2)(a) and (b) of the Convention, - participation, over time, of non-Annex I Parties as recognized in Article 4(2)(f) and (g); establishment of a framework leading to sustainable patterns of economic development that will secure steadily increasing economic growth while restraining the growth of greenhouse gas emissions; (iii) combined approach including both policies and measures as well as targets and timetables such as 2005 and 2010, taking into account the differences in starting points and approaches, economic structures and resource bases as set out in Article 4(2)(a); (iv) coordinated policies and measures covering CO2 and other greenhouse gases, in particular in those areas where international coordination is called for in view of competitiveness concerns, priority being given to: - measures subject to competitiveness concerns; - measures concerning globall ...
