lpv:translated text	"Madam President, as several previous speakers have pointed out, this is an important issue. Sulphur emissions cause great problems in terms of people’s health. They ruin buildings and the cultural heritage and cause lakes to become acidified. That is why it is also good that we in the EU have succeeded in reducing sulphur emissions, in any case from land sources, in recent years and that we are now moving forward on emissions from marine fuels. At the same time, I, like many others in this House, am disappointed that we have not achieved more, especially regarding those points listed earlier by my colleague in the Socialist Group in the European Parliament, Mrs McAvan. On this issue, we as parliamentarians have shown ourselves to be less green than our predecessors in office. I really do hope that this is an exception and that it will not be the case from now on that this Parliament is less green and takes less responsibility for our future environment. Now, we are in any case opening the way for going further in a second phase and reducing sulphur emissions to a greater degree. There are many of us who will monitor whether this does in actual fact happen."@en1
