"The European Commission and Member States financed a study published recently, which criticises the European Union’s climate policies for being limited to reducing industrial greenhouse gas emissions without attaching importance to the natural capacity for capturing carbon dioxide. On the other hand, this study indicates that the intensive method of farming developed by the European Union bears a great deal of responsibility for climate change. In actual fact, this study is an indictment of European agriculture. In my view, if we want to talk about agriculture in this context, we should mention some other things as well. For example, European agriculture has an outstanding record when it comes to its contribution to cutting greenhouse gas emissions, with a 20% reduction in the 1990-2006 period. Bearing in mind that the general average for this period was a mere 6%, I believe that it is wrong for us to put agriculture in the dock two weeks before the Copenhagen conference."@en1
