". In 1992, the Earth Summit took place in Rio to address the issue of sustainable development. Numerous conferences have taken place since then. Johannesburg should have been the opportunity to turn all the good intentions expressed over the last ten years into a concrete, courageous and ambitious plan of action. Today, I am disappointed by the poor results achieved. There is no point in repeating the list of shortcomings in the action plan adopted. I simply wish to stress that research policy was given far too little attention during the debates on sustainable development. While the main role of science is to monitor the state of the environment and to make this known to decision-makers and the public, it should be expected to formulate solutions to environmental problems. Europe, which has put in place its European area of research, an area which is open to the world, must be in a position to share its scientific knowledge and to share the benefits of its experience with the developing countries. These countries are faced with a difficult equation to resolve; that of reconciling the need for strong and rapid growth with all the harm that this may imply in social and environmental terms!"@en1
