The European Commission are in the process of revising the National Emissions Ceilings Directive. This will set limits on national pollutant emissions in the form of emission “ceilings”. Countries will need to reduce their emissions to below these ceilings by 2020.
Aether has been supporting the UK Government in assessing our projected emissions under a range of different scenarios.
Further information on the National Emissions Ceilings Directive is available on the Defra website here.
