Dear MEP, fly in the face of bullying

On 19 March the Environm
ent Comm
ittee will vote on a deal to restrict the aviation ETS
to intra-EU flights only until 2016 (Stop the Clock).
We urge you to vote NO to this deal in order to secure a better deal for Europe.
Why?
The ‘Stop the Clock’ till 2016 proposal is environmentally ineffective.
The Environment Com
mittee voted in overw
helming m
ajority for the more effective ‘airspace’
proposal in January 2014. Saying NO show
s that the Parliament‘s voice m
atters w
hen big Mem
ber States try to bully.
It’s our sovereign right to cover emissions in EU
airspace. W
e must not cave in to international threats from
Russia, China and the US.
