"I voted for the resolution on developing a common EU position ahead of the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20).
The Rio+20 Summit can reinforce the political commitment to sustainable development at a global level and the partnerships between industrialised and developing countries.
I voted for paragraph 29 so as to renew, as part of the Rio+20 Summit, the commitments towards promoting the protection of water resources and the sustainable management of water as a public good.
I voted for Amendment 24 because I think that we need to encourage the use of all low-carbon energy sources, including nuclear energy.
Furthermore, the importance of investments in renewable energy sources and in measures for increasing energy efficiency is steadily growing. Paragraph 54 of the resolution calls on states to remove provisions in current national policies that subsidise or mandate biofuels production or consumption, at least until guarantees for removing the competition with food production, biodiversity and climate protection are implemented. I voted for paragraph 71 because I think that the revenues which can be raised by introducing a tax on financial transactions globally may provide considerable resources for supporting biodiversity and climate protection."@en1
