"Mr President, honourable colleagues, I praise the part of the report where this gas pipeline link with Russia has been incorporated in the Northern Dimension. Honourable Member of the Commission, I propose that the Commission take swift measures in order to get this northern gas to balance our energy situation. A great deal of attention in this presentation has been given to lignite. I should like to ask, therefore, why peat, although it renews itself by a millimetre every year, has been completely forgotten; but then, peat is a type of vegetation found in poorer areas, while lignite is found in wealthier ones! Nevertheless, peat is an important fuel component in remote areas, and it is also a regional fuel. Forty per cent of all energy is spent in buildings, to heat them, to provide water, air-conditioning and lighting for them. Already, during the previous energy crisis, we in Finland had to make modifications to buildings and we have managed to achieve good results in severe conditions. We must greatly enhance energy efficiency in buildings because that is where there really is a great deal of room for improvement. We shall have to gradually get accustomed to twilight conditions, for example. It is great to live in semi-darkness and not always in the sunshine, in artificial light."@en1
