Air pollution: scheme to monitor the average emissions of carbon dioxide CO₂ from new passenger cars

In adopting the report of Ms. Laura GONZALEZ ALVAREZ (GUE/NL, E), on the proposal to establish a scheme to monitor the average specific emissions of carbon dioxide from new passenger cars, the Parliament amended the Commission's proposal. The amendments adopted seek to include within the scope of the monitoring system light commercial vehicles since they also contribute to emissions of CO2, especially in urban areas.�
