"Madam President, Commissioner, I believe the climate change conference in Durban has an advantage over its immediate predecessors: there is no doubt whatsoever that achieving a binding international agreement is impossible.
This should enable energy to be channelled into proposals and joint lines of action that will indeed allow us to progress in practice towards the goal of emissions cuts. So this is good news, because we were not in this position in Cancún, much less when the Copenhagen climate summit was held.
I believe this is the time for the European Union to become the regional leader in energy efficiency proposals, which really can unite the work of a great number of other countries, from the most developed and the richest, to the least developed and the poorest.
Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, fighting against climate change by boosting energy efficiency brings incredible opportunities in all areas, and I sincerely believe that it is time for the European Union to become the leader in combating climate change through energy efficiency."@en1
