An EU court has said the manufacture of private jets can’t be excluded from a list of activities deemed to be environmentally sustainable, fuelling concerns about the greenwashing of the emissions of the super-rich.
The list, intended to provide an overview of green investments, previously excluded aircraft for private or commercial business aviation due to their high emissions compared with other forms of transport following a 2023 decision by the European Commission.
The court argued that the 2023 ruling was made with a number of errors, including that other modes of transport couldn’t necessarily be seen as low-carbon alternatives as they “lack the flexibility and speed” of private jets.
In which country?!? Where does this “EU court” reside?!?
I suspect France, given that Dassault is involved. Or maybe it is the EU Court, but doubtful
If you read the article or the linked Reuters article you would know it was the General Court, it’s located in Luxembourg, but it’s a court of the EU, not Luxembourg.
I stand corrected, thank you. Somehow I skimmed over both the link to the original article and the actual name.
Multi-national conglomerates knows no borders.
