"Congratulations, Mr Lange. Five years ago, you needed three readings to achieve a sound result in the car oil programme. Now, and I am thereby briefly looking at Mr Bowe, agreement has been reached with the Council after first reading. That is first-rate! Air pollution in the traditional sense of the word will soon be a thing of the past in Europe, at least once we have introduced the new engines in cars, lorries, in ordinary engines, chain saws and now also in pile drivers, freight trains and inland waterway vessels. The Commission did not want to introduce legislation, particularly for those trains and inland waterway vessels, until much later on. Parliament and the Council, though, refused to be thrown off balance and regulated this straight away, because it is technically possible. Freight trains and inland waterway vessels use much less energy, simply because resistance is much less significant. This means that the environmental benefit from freight trains and inland waterway vessels is completely back to what it used to be, something with which we in the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance are delighted."@en1
