"This is a critical point in the fight against climate change. Now there is a legal framework in place to help countries move from the dirty economy and look forward to a cleaner future. No matter what faults there are in some aspects of the package, it is now time for the European Union to get to work.
Capturing and storing carbon cannot be thought of as a ‘magic bullet’ that will achieve climate targets. Priority should always be given to renewable energy. The technology is not fully formed as yet but there is every chance that we will have to depend upon it as part of our coordinated action against carbon emissions.
I welcome Chris Davies’s report and thank him for the work he has done. This report lays down rules which are firmer and clearer in different ways than the ones that were recommended by the Commission, although we did not receive everything that we needed.
I am satisfied to co-sign on behalf of the Confederal Group of the European United Left/Nordic Green Left and I ask my colleagues to vote in favour."@en1
