Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.
Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.
Register facts self-declared (snapshot 2 Sept 2026); cost bands are floors. Shared files are shared attention, not evidence of coordination.

T&E welcomes the Commission’s initiative to align the ETS directive with the EU’s 2030 target of at least -55% emissions reduction and to ensure that all sectors contribute, in line with the EU’s international commitment to economy-wide action under the Paris Agreement. However, T&E regrets that the Commission is considering to switch gear on tackling emissions in the road sector.
The Government of Japan, as a country threatened by climate change and at the same time heavily dependent on international shipping, has expressed its concerns about the extension of the EU’s emissions trading system (ETS) to international shipping at every opportunity. However, the regulation package for international shipping in the Fit for 55 published in July 2021 brings Japan much deeper concerns.
This response is about the inclusion of 1)shipping and 2)road transport into the ETS: 1.SHIPPING Shipping accounts for around 3.5% of the EU’s total GHG emissions, but has so far avoided regulation on its climate impact. Integrating shipping into the ETS is a positive step in the right direction and will put shipping on the path towards climate neutrality in line with the Paris Agreement.
While every other sector’s climate emissions have decreased since 1990, on average, aviation emissions have more than doubled. If the European Green Deal is to radically reduce the EU’s climate impact, it has to reshape European aviation by using all necessary carbon pricing tools at its disposal, including revising the Emission Trading System (ETS).
Japan would first like to take this feedback opportunity to congratulate the European Commission on the broad scope of its Fit for 55 package and its high level of climate ambition. Taking this opportunity, Japan would like to share our views as follows.
The Commission is proposing to reform the EU ETS rules for aviation to try and address some unfair privileges the sector was benefiting from and start applying a more effective price on aviation emissions. But it unfortunately continues to implement Corsia, ICAO’s carbon offsetting scheme despite its confirmed lack of economic and environmental integrity.
