lpv:translated text	"Madam President, I have just been on the Internet to look at the programme for the international conference on biodiversity and sustainable energy development in Hyderabad in India in October of this year. With regard to this conference, the position we are in is almost diametrically opposed to the one we find ourselves in with the report we are debating today, because as yet we do not know how the EU will be involved in this important conference, or who, if anyone, will potentially take part. In Mr Gerbrandy’s report, however, we are extremely precise, both when we talk about new initiatives, such as a comprehensive framework directive on soil for the whole of the Union, and with regard to the financing of biodiversity. However, why should the EU decide the areas in which the Member States are to make things greener, as stated in the report? It states, for example, that this should happen along highways and railroads and at industrial sites. In my opinion, it is completely unnecessary to dictate specific areas in a report, as this is something that falls within the competence of the Member States and should be tailored to local and regional circumstances. I am therefore unable to vote in favour of the report. However, the report also contains a large number of good proposals, including the demand for best practices in respect of available scientific data in order to prevent the loss of biodiversity. That is very worthwhile. Therefore, I am also unable to vote against the report, and in the end I am going to abstain. What I cannot see in general is the desire to educate EU citizens to take responsibility for the world they live in. This education starts in our national nursery schools and in people’s homes."@en1
