Our proposal introduces a minimum price on CO2 emissions, starting from 50€ per CO2 tonne from 2020 up to 100€ by 2025. At the same time, the proposal shall abolish the existing system of free allowances to EU polluters and introduce a border adjustment mechanism on non-EU imports, in such a way as to compensate for the lower pricing on CO2 emissions in the exporting country. The higher revenue deriving from carbon pricing shall be allocated to European policies that support energy saving and the use of renewable sources, and to the reduction of taxation on lower incomes.
*This is a European Citizens Initiative registered on the European Commission website.
Because it’s the best way to
cut greenhouse gas emissions to fight climate change.
As 11.000 natural scientists and over 5.000 social scientists support.
Revenue from carbon pricing will be used to cut labor taxes and to support a low-carbon future.
Fewer taxes and greener world.
Carbon Pricing will create new jobs and investment opportunities.
Letting greenhouse gas emission unchecked means hundred of thousands of deaths every year in EU and huge climate change-related costs.
Ein EBI (Europäische Bürgerinitiative ) ist ein partizipatives, demokratisches Instrument, welches uns erlaubt, ein Europa nach unseren Wünschen zu formen, indem wir konkrete gesetzliche Veränderungen einfordern. Und es ist viel mehr als eine Petition. Die Initiative muss von mindestens 7 EU BürgerInnen gestartet werden, die in 7 verschiedenen Mitgliedstaaten leben. Sobald 1.000.000 Unterschriften gesammelt worden sind, wird die EBI der Europäischen Kommission präsentiert und im Europäischen Parlament diskutiert. So haben wir die Macht, ein grünes und nachhaltiges Europa zu formen.
Ein CO2-Preis gilt als “der effektivste Hebel zur Reduktion von Kohlenstoff Emissionen, um in notwendigem Umfang und Geschwindigkeit die globale Erwärmung zu bekämpfen“. Die Idee wird u.a. auch von 27 NobelpreisträgerInnen und 5227 WissenschafterInnen unterstützt. (read more) Mach mit und unterschreibe!
