"I voted against this report, which encourages the Member States to take the necessary measures towards ‘good environmental status’ in marine affairs by 2020.
The marine environment hosts vital resources and its ecosystem provides essential services such as climate regulation and oxygen production.
Policies concerning maritime transport, fishing, energy or even tourism have evolved separately, occasionally leading to failures, inconsistencies or usage conflicts.
A more global approach was necessary, taking account of all aspects of a sustainable development policy for Europe’s marine environment.
The Member States must devise strategies for the marine environment in a number of stages for waters falling under their sovereignty. By 2015 these strategies ought to produce a programme of measures designed to achieve good environmental status. Member States sharing the same marine region or sub-region will have to cooperate to coordinate the various components of marine environment strategy.
Work must continue with the creation of marine parks, as highlighted by the Grenelle Environmental Forum. The report provides for the creation of protected areas, but it could have been more restrictive."@en1
