"Mr President, in order to meet the ever increasing worldwide challenges, Europe needs its own well-coordinated and reliable Earth monitoring system. Once operational, GMES will limit the impact of natural disasters, such as those in Chile and/or Haiti. GMES cannot prevent these disasters, but it will make the rescue operations more efficient, as images generated by GMES can identify the areas with problems. In the case of Romania, often affected by flooding, the destroyed infrastructure can be located, and the population can be evacuated and helped effectively through this system. According to a cost-benefit analysis, it is estimated that the GMES programme will generate benefits worth at least twice the costs of investments by 2020, and four times the costs by 2030. This represents a tremendous potential in terms of economic growth and job creation through the development of innovative services and commercial applications in the downstream sectors. Therefore, I believe that this programme is worthy of further support within the financial programme."@en1
