Air pollution: GHG emission trading (Kyoto Protocol)

This procedure establishes rules for trading greenhouse gas emission credits derived from the Kyoto Protocol's project mechanisms. It aims to help the EU meet its international climate targets by allowing the use of credits earned through certified emission reduction projects globally.

This affects energy producers, heavy industry, and companies participating in the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) by defining how international credits can be used to offset their emissions.
