lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, the renewal of the Sustainable Development Strategy is very welcome, but it must become more focused. The need to have better coordination with other cross-cutting strategies like Lisbon is well established, but we also need to have better coordination within the sustainable development strategy itself. We need to think clearly and recognise that some of our sustainable development policies could potentially conflict with others. For example, we are committed to a European target for biofuels and I very much support this, but the sustainable development strategy also includes a commitment to sustainable forest management and to halting the loss of biodiversity. A badly thought-through expansion of biofuels could result in virgin forests being destroyed and habitats lost. A properly thought-through biofuels policy would mean European vehicles running on biofuels from certified sources only. So I would beg the Presidency in this regard simply to use the strategy as a starting point for much more detailed work on sustainability."@en1
