Ambient air quality and cleaner air in Europe
I voted in favor of the report on the proposal for a directive on ambient air quality and cleaner air for Europe. Breathing clean air is a fundamental human right. Air pollution is the main environmental threat to human health: every year, air pollution kills 300,000 people in Europe. The EU must update its outdated pollution limit values, bringing them into line with the scientific recommendations of the World Health Organization and the goal of zero pollution by 2050.
By 2030, Europe should reduce the concentration of pollutants such as fine particles and nitrogen dioxide in the air, as proposed by the European Commission, and by 2035 pollution should be further reduced, in line with the recommendations of the World Health Organization. Once again, the conservative and populist groups were defeated and failed to push through their amendments which increased and delayed the pollution limit values compared to the Commission's proposal.
