Copa-Cogeca warns against new LULUCF proposals to monitor land use and land use change

Copa-Cogeca warned today against new EU Commission proposals which make the EU forestry and farming sectors monitor and report from 2013 any changes to land use that could affect greenhouse gas emissions, as part of measures to curb climate change. “They are neither feasible nor coherent given the current level of understanding”, Copa-Cogeca Secretary-General Pekka Pesonen stressed.
