"Mr President, everything essential has already been said, and I understand the anger expressed by Mr Turmes. A radical transformation is needed in the charging structures with a view to internalising social and environmental costs of transport.
Greenhouse gas emissions are mainly attributable to road transport. Although that is a well-known fact, it was still difficult to make others see that this is not about pestering lorries. According to some texts, there is a dramatic increase in traffic, and along with this, a dramatic increase in the emission of greenhouse gases. This is a tragedy, and it simply has to stop.
I should briefly like to bring to your attention Amendment No 24 from the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Consumer Policy. It looks like a new committee is being created. I hope that this committee, when it is up and running in a couple of years' time, will duly seek advice from the NGOs in the field of protecting personal privacy and the environment."@en1
