lpv:translated text	"I should like to give the following explanation of my vote. I could not, for the following reasons, vote for the resolution concerning climate changes and the way in which the Kyoto conference as a whole is to be followed up. The resolution contains nothing about which particular consequences for the climate the unreasonable development of nuclear power has. In my home country, Sweden, the parliament has decided to phase out nuclear power by closing an extremely dependable nuclear power station, Barsebäck on the Sound. According to calculations made, closing this power station will increase carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 3.5 million metric tons per year. This more than doubles Sweden’s contribution to overall CO2 emissions from electricity production. This unwise strategy in my own country has also meant that Sweden has negotiated for itself a quota within the EU, on account of the EU’s commitments following the Kyoto Conference, as a result of which carbon dioxide emissions in Sweden have been permitted to increase by 4%. This is extremely regrettable and remarkable, considering that the EU’s responsibility after Kyoto is to reduce CO2 emissions by a total of 8%. Because these important facts were not dealt with in the resolution, I could not support it."@en1
