Description

In this episode of Europe Talks Back, Gail Rego takes us inside the investigation by Stefano Valentino published by the pan-European online media, Voxeurop, on how the European car industry has lobbied EU institutions to weaken Euro Seven, the next European Emission Standard.

Over the years, the EU has progressively adopted more stringent regulations on car emissions, but establishing this new standard is proving to be more difficult than in the past.

This story is part of an investigation conducted with Voxeurop and supported by the Journalismfund Europe, the European Excellence Exchange in Journalism (E³J) and Free Press Unlimited.

“If there is no Euro Seven with stringent rules, they will keep polluting the air that citizens breathe.” - Stefano Valentino
