"Sustainable management of water ensures, on the one hand, that ecosystems in the Member States receive enough high-quality water to sustain them and, on the other, that everyone has safe access to food and water. This particular debate is vitally important to Greece, which faces problems of over-irrigation, climate change and periodic drought. Clearly, future economic growth will only be sustainable if it is uncoupled from the adverse environmental impact of water. However, the action taken to date by the EU and the Member States does not suffice. The ‘Blueprint to safeguard Europe’s water resources’, which the Commission is to publish in November 2012, aims to create a European strategy on water which will overcome any birthing difficulties and omissions that have arisen to date. The European Parliament welcomes the adoption of a more aggressive strategy in this sector in this report, which I supported."@en1
