lpv:translated text	"Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, thank you for accommodating me. I would like to expand our vision slightly and look to the future, not just the past. We are in a situation where we are seeing that growth cannot always be continual, rather it is restricted by the limited nature of natural resources and the limited capacity of the earth to absorb and metabolise our waste. We can no longer base our view solely on material growth – our concept of development – instead we must see development with stronger reference to quality of life: we must, in essence our society. From this perspective, regions are equally important for their cultural wealth – meaning the richness of their quality of life – which is extremely important at a time like the present when our lifestyle must change completely. In this context of a region’s wealth in terms of its quality of life is thus extremely important, I would even say absolutely indispensable. I would therefore like to direct both the Commission and Parliament towards an understanding of the change in lifestyle that we must effect, a of our societies and therefore a cultural work, which will become irreplaceable as we have to substitute immaterial wealth for material assets. This regional experience is thus something that we must try to understand and preserve before it is swept away by a whole series of oversights. For this reason I would ask that we proceed with this debate, because it is so essential and because we must simply change our way of life."@en1
