"Environmental degradation caused by air pollution, noise, chemicals, poor water quality and ecosystem degradation is an important factor in the increase of chronic diseases. Given the current sustainability challenges that the EU has to tackle, the environment action programmes, as global instruments, help to ensure the necessary coordination between different EU policies. Over the next 10 years, it will be even more important to address environmental issues through a more coherent and integrated approach that takes into account the links between different issues and bridges the gaps that still exist; otherwise, irreversible damage could be caused. Therefore, this vote serves to emphasise how the 7th Environment Action Programme will provide the clarity and predictability needed by national and local governments, citizens, entrepreneurs and investors regarding the European Union’s environmental choices. It will then be necessary to enforce and strengthen environmental legislation, integrate environmental objectives into all policy areas and create an international dimension to environmental protection."@en1
