"Mr President, some twenty years have gone by since the first UN conference on the environment which is a long enough timeframe to allow us properly to judge what we have done towards environmentally sustainable life on Earth. It has also given us ample time to show that we are qualified to set new tasks and objectives for the years to come.
The forthcoming United Nations Rio+20 conference on sustainable development will focus on two main issues. The first will be greening the economy in the context of sustainable development and fighting poverty, and the second will be institutional development within the framework of sustainable development. This conference could be a major stimulus for moving towards a world-wide green economy. We must, however, make the effort to ensure we have prepared effective mechanisms to implement its resolutions in everyday life. To secure the vision and goals of the summit we will have to prepare a sound plan for greening the economy which defines the scope of international, regional and national steps and measures, with measurable indicators and targets for progress. We should use the time that remains until the Rio+20 Earth Summit in June 2012 to prepare such a plan, for example, a road map to a green economy."@en1
