On June 5th in the European Parliament, the European Aluminium Association advocated more ambitious and more objective targets for the reduction of CO2 emissions from passenger cars. Emission targets based on the mass of vehicles are not likely to ensure that the overall reduction goal of an average 130g/km of CO2 will be met. Nor will the legislative measure proposed by the European Commission be able to ensure that the 140g/km target set for 2008 is met any earlier than 2015, if met at all.

The European Aluminium Association, in collaboration with the VUB (Dept Metallurgy, electrochemistry and Materials Science) & the Aluminium Center Belgium, will illustrate the achievements of the European project, alumatter, through a 2-days symposium on 24 & 25 November 2005.

     This European project, the last 3 years of which were co-funded by the European Commission's Leonardo da Vinci programme, has developed interactive modular resources on aluminium science and technology, freely accessible on internet. Twenty alumatter partners from the aluminium industry, technical centres or universities have contributed to the nine e-learning modules that respectively deal with: Strengthening Mechanisms, Softening Mechanisms, Anisotropy, Surface & Physical Properties, Mechanical Properties, Machining, Joining Technology, Forming Technology, Corrosion & Surface Engineering. The last six modules will be available in English, Dutch, French & German.
