"Mr President, this report shows how women and men are responsible to different degrees for the changes to the climate that are happening, that we have different levels of access to our common resources, and that we are affected differently by climate change. This knowledge is essential if we are to be able to change our behaviour and attitudes and change the world. This is what most of us in the European Parliament want, even if perhaps not all of us are thinking along the same lines. These values and this knowledge need to be present both within the EU and in other parts of the world. We enter into trade and environment agreements and the gender equality aspect needs to be included in these.
I would like to thank Ms Kiil-Nielsen for this report on climate policy. It takes a slightly different approach from the usual one. This is good, as most of us are aware that political solutions are more effective if we have knowledge and awareness of both the class and the gender aspects. This applies to climate policy too.
If the climate policy that we decide on here, usually with broad majority support, is to become reality and not merely empty words on paper, we need reports that will guide us in the way that this report is able to. Thank you once again for this work."@en1
