Rule 144
Bogdan Andrzej Zdrojewski (PPE), Łukasz Kohut (PPE), Borys Budka (PPE)
Industrial and mobile heritage is a part of our European identity, representing the technological and social development that has shaped our continent. Preserving this heritage ensures that future generations can understand and appreciate Europe’s industrial values. A key element of its preservation is the continued, but limited production of CO2 based on the availability and use of fossil fuels necessary for the operation of heritage machinery and vehicles.
- 1.How does the Commission plan to take into account the specific needs of industrial and mobile heritage in the ongoing revision of the CO2 Regulation and the EU Climate Law, ensuring that a limited and controlled production of CO2 and supply of fossil fuels remains available for this purpose?
- 2.How does the Commission intend to avoid restrictions of cultural heritage fuels resulting from future regulatory developments and considering the importance of passing knowledge and expertise related to industrial and mobile heritage to future generations, and what measures does the Commission plan to support educational and promotional initiatives?
- 3.How does the Commission plan to bring industrial and mobile heritage to policy action and protection at a time when Europe needs to showcase its inventiveness, industrial ingenuity, creativity and historical achievements?
