The FuelEU Maritime regulation seeks to steer the EU maritime sector towards decarbonisation. The proposal sets up a fuel standard for ships and introduces a requirement for the most polluting ship types to use onshore electricity when at berth. It puts the responsibility for compliance on the shipping company. The legislative outcome of this proposal will be closely linked to the simultaneously proposed rules on including the maritime sector in the EU emissions trading system, as well as those on alternative fuels infrastructure, energy taxation and renewable energy. Moreover, some of the proposed rules do not concern EU shipping only but have wider implications for international maritime shipping, which is regulated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO).

Pereidama prie žiedinės ekonomikos ES imasi veiksmų, kuriais siekiama užtikrinti, kad perdirbtose medžiagose nesikauptų toksiški chemikalai. Patvarieji organiniai teršalai (POT), apimantys ir vadinamąsias „amžinąsias chemines medžiagas“, yra junginiai, kurie veikiami aplinkos sąlygų nesuyra. Anksčiau naudoti pramonėje, jie kelia problemų dėl savo ilgaamžiškumo: kaupiasi atliekose, dirvožemyje, ore ir vandenyje bei gali turėti neigiamą poveikį žmonių sveikatai ir aplinkai. Todėl Parlamentas priėmė taisykles, kuriomis siekiama pašalinti tokius teršalus. Pranešėjas Martin Hojsík aiškina, kas yra POT, kodėl jie pavojingi ir kokius teisės aktų pakeitimus primygtinai siūlė Europos Parlamentas.
