BBC News - EU suspends extension of plane emissions trading rules: "The European Union has postponed a planned extension of rules that require airlines to pay for their carbon emissions to include flights to and from non-EU destinations.
The rules had been unpopular with the US, China and India among others.
Climate commissioner Connie Hedegaard said she had proposed "stopping the clock for one year".
She said the suspension was due to progress being made in negotiations on a global emissions deal."
