Bellona Europa co-signs NGO statement on CBAM expressing concerns about isolating it from FitFor55 package
Ahead of the Economic and Financial Affairs Council Meeting (ECOFIN), Bellona, together with a number of NGOs, signed a statement on ensuring the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) remains linked to work on the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) Directive and other key aspects of the Fit for 55 package.
