"I am voting for this report, since a holistic approach to the protection of water resources is needed. The protection of water resources, in particular drinking water, should be addressed from a global perspective, taking into account all ecosystem services supported by water. It is crucial that pollution be controlled at its source, in order to prevent hazardous substances from entering the environment and to reduce the burden on wastewater treatment. Climate change mitigation and adaptation policies should always take account of the impact on water resources, and the EU should adopt a holistic approach to water scarcity and droughts. It is possible and desirable to make significant gains in the efficiency of water resources. Resource efficiency is a flagship initiative of the Europe 2020 strategy, and water efficiency plays a central part in that strategy. In addition, water quantity and quality are inextricably linked."@en1
