In the European Union is currently negotiating the CO2 fleet limit values of passenger cars for the period up to 2030. For now, emerging positioning of the Federal government, the Deputy Chairman of the CDU/CSU group in the Bundestag declared, Georg Nüßlein:

“Climate protection is not achieved by Setting higher and higher hurdles that are technically and financially not feasible. We need rather ambitious, but also achievable goals. Therefore, it is true that the Federal government uses in the European negotiations on the fleet of cars or limit a reduction of a further 30 percent by the year 2030. This nonetheless ambitious goal of the EU-Commission.

Who asked of the Federal Minister of the environment that today’s CO2 emissions are to be halved within a decade, the shoots over the goal. Credible climate policy may not be values in the Setting of unrealistic target, and the simultaneous search for the guilty parties in their pre-programmed misconduct.

In order to open up additional ways to reduce emissions in the transport sector, should also be the use of synthetic fuels on the greenhouse gas balance sheet. It is not clear why electric vehicles are here to be considered extremely positive, regardless of the current load, and synthetic fuels to find at the same time no influence in the accounting, although their use is associated with significantly less greenhouse gas.“
