Brussels, 05/05/2020 (Agence Europe)

Positive trends were recorded last year in the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), with greenhouse gas emissions from the 11,000 facilities covered by the scheme falling by 8.7% and aviation emissions rising by significantly less than in previous years.

The 2019 annual report published by the European Commission on Monday 4 May shows a 9% drop in verified emissions from permanent facilities (power stations and industrial plants) and an increase of only around 1% in emissions from airlines.
