Empty flights or "ghost flights" are bad for the economy and bad for the environment. That is why the Commission developed measures from the start of the pandemic to avoid such flights. A thread... (1/7).

Its journey is a reminder of how trains connect us and their important role in building a carbon-neutral transport sector.

Ministers will meet tomorrow to talk about the #ParisAgreement carbon markets ⏰
How can they make progress on #Article6?
❌Forbid double counting
❌Don’t transfer #KyotoProtocol carbon credits
✅Include adaptation finance for developing countries

All talk but little action!
Whilst the power sector has curbed its carbon pollution through the #EUETS, energy-intensive industries have barely decreased theirs & continue to push back reforms to the climate legislation.
We debunk the heavy industry claims 👇
THREAD 1/4
#Fitfor55 proposals to improve #EUETS & establish #CBAM are not in line with the Paris Agreement goals!
Instead of making the 🇪🇺 legislation fit for polluters, it should be made fit for the🌍by:
Speeding up emission reductions
Making polluters pay
Fair measures for all sectors
The journey begins: Today @EUCouncil took the last step to make 2021 the European Year of Rail, following @Europarl_EN adoption on Tuesday – Time to get ready for #EUYearofRail! Let’s put 🚊 in the spotlight!
