"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the conservation of biodiversity is an important and topical issue, though unfortunately, it is undervalued by many.
A good many of the citizens of the 27 Member States do not understand the serious risk of biodiversity loss, nor the repercussions which this could have for the climate, environment and economy of our countries.
I am sure that it is up to us to fully and effectively implement the European legislation in force, integrate the sources of financing with policies for preserving biodiversity in Europe, and simplify the rules for accessing financing for projects at a local level. I am talking about the LIFE programme, which Mrs Antonescu mentioned.
In addition, the preservation of both terrestrial and marine habitats must be a priority on the European agenda, but also of all the Member States which must work to harmonise their interventions. At all local levels, the conservation of biodiversity needs to be made a criterion.
I conclude by pointing out that Parliament is responsible for giving a strong signal to Europe in terms of improving the quality of our lives but, above all, of those of future generations."@en1
