Call for a moratorium on EU agrofuel incentives

Call for an immediate moratorium on EU incentives for agrofuels, EU imports of agrofuels and EU agroenergy monocultures.
The undersigned call for an immediate moratorium on EU incentives for agrofuels and agroenergy from
large-scale monocultures including tree plantations and a moratorium on EU imports of such agrofuels. This includes the immediate suspension of all targets, incentives such as tax breaks and subsidies which benefit agrofuels from large-scale monocultures, including financing through carbon trading mechanisms, international development aid or loans from international finance organisations such as the World Bank.
This call also responds to the growing number of calls from the global south against agrofuel monocultures, which EU targets are helping to promote.
