Road traffic is a major contributor. This Thursday, EU member states and the European Parliament will meet to negotiate new legislation targeting urban pollution. The \u2018Euro 7\u2019 standards aim to limit car emissions and help align EU pollution levels with World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>Euro 7 is the upcoming revision to EU vehicle emissions standards, which aim to reduce the pollution generated by cars. The current Euro 6 rules set maximum limits for certain harmful gases and particulate matter produced by new cars and vans. The new rules aim to regulate all vehicles &#8211; including lorries and buses &#8211; under one emissions standard. They contribute to the European Green Deal\u2019s target of achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.<\/p>\n<p>The version of Euro 7 tabled by the Council essentially continues with the almost 10-year-old Euro 6 norms for exhaust emissions. The only change is the introduction of limits for particulate matter from brakes and tyres and of on-board emissions monitoring systems to ensure long term compliance. Diesel-fuelled cars are still allowed to pollute more than petrol ones. The Euro 7 text approved by the Parliament is slightly more ambitious. It partially maintains the requirements proposed by the EC, including the alignment of NOx emission limits for diesel to those set for petrol cars under Euro 6 (60mg\/km) and tighter tests for the approval of new models. Whatever the final agreement between the Council and the Parliament &#8211; the two EU co-legislators &#8211; on both the Euro 7 and the Air Quality Standards, it is unlikely to fulfil the public health improvements initially promised.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/green\/2023\/12\/13\/weakened-eu-vehicle-emissions-standards-could-mean-100-billion-in-health-and-environmental\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/5-451\/\">Weakened EU vehicle emissions standards could mean \u20ac100 billion in health and environmental damages<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[703,575,274,582],"class_list":["post-119514","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-emissions","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-eu","tag-vehicle"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119514"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119514\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119514"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119514"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
