"The creation of the Committee on Climate Change was determined by the direct impact climate changes have on the planet, endangering the existence of humankind in general. We debate the European Treaty, we want to strengthen Community institutions, we create plans for the future. We should be very careful, we may have no reason to do this anymore. Our health, economy, ecosystems, our way of life, Europe as we know it is in great danger. Scientists have expressed their position and we have agreed with them in a large majority. Studies are very clear and we can also see here, in Brussels, how weather phenomena of all four seasons happen in one day, which is clearly not normal. The mandate of the Committee on Climate Change is extremely clear: it has to analyze the present situation, to make a list of possibilities for combating climate change and formulate concrete proposals regarding the European Union policy in this field, at all decision levels. Today’s resolution includes a large number of action proposals for the Committee. Nevertheless, in order for them to have an effect, I believe these proposals should be considered thoroughly and maybe included into the Committee’s final report, adding suggestions for the implementation deadlines. Moreover, it is absolutely necessary for the European institutions to propose, as soon as possible, a clear strategy to be negotiated at an international level. It is useless to take action only in Europe. We should be the promoters of combating climate change at a global level. Just concrete actions, which would take into consideration only those arguments regarding the stability of the citizens’ lives, could diminish the effects of climate change and these actions should be implemented as soon as possible."@en1
