lpv:translated text	". Madam President, for many months now in the debate over shale gas we have seen a clash of opinions, interests and emotions, big emotions. As shadow rapporteur on the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety, I am once again seeing the danger of a partial non-objective view of the problem of shale gas extraction. Citizens of many countries – Poland, for example – see in the shale gas deposits that have been identified an enormous opportunity for a reduction in energy prices and a break away from external energy supplies, especially from the East. I very much regret that ecologists do not view shale gas as an opportunity to decarbonise our power generation, which today is based particularly on coal. Current conditions are making it increasingly difficult to put a climate package into effect, particularly further CO reductions, and these conditions are leading to huge economic and social problems in many countries. Shale gas is therefore an enormous opportunity, and not a threat. The European Commission has now announced its intention to bring in new regulations in respect of environmentally safe hydrocarbon extraction, even though analyses, and also Ms Tzavela’s report, have accepted the fact that EU regulations adequately – and I stress, adequately – cover the unconventional gas sector. It looks as if only cooperation between the governments of the Member States may hold off a block on gas exploitation. To conclude, in this difficult context I wish once again to recognise the rapporteurs of both committees, who appreciate the strategic significance of shale gas for European power generation. I call upon my colleagues and fellow Members to support Ms Tzavela’s report and to reject the amendment submitted a few days ago to Mr Sonik’s report, calling for a ban on hydraulic fracking."@en1
