". I wish to record my support for this motion and opposition to the amendment which proposes to restrict the use of high-intensity active naval sonar only in areas geographically limited defined as 'sensitive marine habitats'. Whales and other cetaceans are migratory animals which need to be protected throughout their range with no geographical restriction. High-intensity sounds such as those produced by active naval sonars have the potential to cause harmful physical damage to marine life, ranging from temporary hearing loss to permanent damage and even death. There is an urgent need for a European and global legislative framework for monitoring the effects of underwater noise and regulating the input of underwater noise into the marine environment. The unregulated proliferation of harmful man-made noise in the oceans and seas poses potential threats to marine life and ecosystems."@en1
