"Developing countries have contributed least to climate change, but stand to suffer the most from its consequences and will be least able to deal with them. The industrialised nations are historically responsible for climate change and have a moral duty to contribute to the efforts of the developing countries to adapt to the consequences of climate change. The review of the 2007 EU Action Plan on climate change and development shows that not enough is being done to integrate climate change into EU Development Policy and work is particularly slow. I support the Commission’s initiative to establish the Global Climate Change Alliance. However, the EUR 60 million allocated to the Global Climate Change Alliance is wholly insufficient and therefore it is important for the Commission to set out long-term funding and allocate at least EUR 2 billion until 2010, and EUR 5 billion until 2020. At present, developing countries desperately lack the funds to adapt to climate change. By helping the developing countries, we will also help ourselves."@en1
