"Mr President, resource efficiency and the circular economy are exciting opportunities to deliver benefits for the environment, promote new ways to tackle climate change and create jobs. To focus on one element of the report we will, hopefully, adopt on Wednesday, the 2050 horizon for sustainable use of resources in the EU contains a provision to implement the principle of cascading use of resources, notably in the use of biomass. ‘Cascading use’ means prioritising the most advanced applications of resources before burning them for fuel. This is particularly true of wood, which can be used in construction, manufacturing, textiles, the automotive industry and even food production, all of which have the potential to create jobs.
In regions such as my own in the north-east of England, this report will help companies such as Robertson’s, which specialises in wooden frames for houses, reopen their factory in County Durham, providing a vital boost for the local economy. Put simply, resource efficiency means more jobs."@en1
