"This motion for a resolution on the EU’s position at the next climate change conference, which will take place in Durban, South Africa, between 28 November and 9 December 2011, follows the oral questions to the Council and the Commission by Mr Leinen, Chair of the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety. The natural disasters that occurred in 2011 and the melting of the ice caps prove the need for us to be very attentive to these situations, and to take action at global level. It is people who have to react to climate change, not the other way around, so we have to limit the mean temperature increase to 2°C and ensure that 2012 is the year when the level of greenhouse gases peaks. It is not enough to adopt the right measures: they need to be actually implemented. I therefore welcome the significant presence of EU representatives at this conference, in order to enforce the recommendations that have been adopted, and I am glad to see the EU’s commitment to honouring the Kyoto Protocol and to reducing CO
emissions by more than the 20% envisaged by 2020."@en1
