"The general aim of this motion for a resolution is a legally binding international agreement consistent with the principle of ‘common but differentiated responsibility’. The resolution stipulates that, regardless of the outcome of the international negotiations, it is in the EU’s own interest to aim for a climate protection target of over 20%, since this would have the effect of simultaneously creating green jobs and boosting growth and security. It is vitally important to aim for a reduction in the EU that is higher than the target that it has set itself. This is all the more important given that this is a new approach, regardless of the fact that the global target that will be agreed upon in Durban is likely to be lower. The establishment of a Green Climate Fund is also called for, to support the transition to low-carbon and climate-resilient development in developing countries. I also welcome the inclusion of aviation and transport in the Durban agreement.
I voted in favour for these reasons. However, I must state my opposition to carbon trading mechanisms, and I regret that more weight is being given to intellectual property rights than to combating climate change."@en1
