"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, first of all, let me say that I am impressed with the interesting arguments put forward in this debate on one of the keystones of European policies on climate change and energy.
At this time of great turmoil in our economies, I have to admire how the French Presidency has attempted – in conjunction also with President Berlusconi, who deserves thanks and recognition for this – to tackle an area that admittedly contributes to the destruction and pollution of the planet, while ensuring reasonable terms for the survival of our industries. The Turmes report essentially increases our prospects, there being no doubt that we will need energy from renewable sources.
I agree with the general direction taken by the report and with the amendments, particularly Amendments 1, 2, 4, 5 and 7, and I intend to vote in favour, although I wish certain instruments for generating renewable energy were assessed differently, given that their impact has yet to be properly evaluated and debated. The proposed objectives must, however, take account of social as well as environmental sustainability, and thus, if you will, the sustainability of all aspects of our manufacturing industries."@en1
