"Every year, an area of forest covering the size of Greece is destroyed worldwide, constituting a serious threat to biodiversity, exacerbating global warming and accentuating the planet’s social inequalities. This agreement replaces that of 1994, enabling a credible licensing scheme and ensuring that only legal timber producers have access to the market. This, along with other measures mentioned in the agreement and in other decisions of the European institutions, aims to prevent over-exploitation and illegal logging, which remain widespread and constitute a serious environmental and social problem. I voted for this recommendation for these reasons. Nevertheless, I cannot fail to stress the importance of the need for more measures on really sustainable forest management involving fairer trade rules and trade relations."@en1
