lpv:translated text	"Water-related issues are a matter of just concern for European policy makers. Our ideas about water quality and quantity should not distract us from the fact that desertification is affecting ever more European regions. Taking water resources for granted, without protecting them or seeking to preserve them, is the first step towards losing them. If there is an issue that is bound up in our very survival and that touches upon many aspects of our existence, it is water. The EU therefore needs to tackle it in a comprehensive, smart and effective way. I hope that Europeans will become truly conscious of the need to safeguard the water supply and its reasonable use by the public, and that the legislation adopted will reinforce the need to preserve it, thereby ensuring the survival of future generations and European ecosystems."@en1
