Maritime transport causes about 4% of global man-made CO 2 emissions—making its carbon footprint approximately as high as Germany’s. At present, around 50,000 merchant ships transport 90% of global goods and make maritime transport indispensable for the world economy. The legal position on shipping emissions.

The government also is maintaining its target of cutting GHG emissions by 40% by 2020 (compared with 1990 levels) and by 80% by 2050. This scenario would ensure that Germany meets its climate targets, Siemens said. The climate goal can be reached by 2030 with fewer renewable energy sources at substantially lower costs.

In summary, the preferred alternative of the proposed rulemaking would freeze the requirements at the MY 2020 level through MY 2026. But the evidence shows that freezing CAFE standards is hard to justify on economic, social, environmental, or legal grounds. This would result in an average fuel economy for passenger cars of 43.7

The SAFE rule would essentially freeze the current standards at the MY 2020 level (specifically, the “footprint” or “size-based” target curves for passenger cars and light trucks) through 2026. It’s no secret that the approach behind the current standards focused almost exclusively on energy efficiency and carbon dioxide reductions.
