"The European Union’s biodiversity strategy to 2020 offers the opportunity to take the necessary steps to protect nature and safeguard ecosystem services for future generations. All major European policies are currently being reviewed. The common agricultural policy, cohesion policy, the common fisheries policy and the European road maps on energy, transport and resource efficiency will soon be translated into legislation. It has to be shown that the statements on biodiversity are more than just promises and are reflected in concrete policy measures. I am in favour of the text of the report, but I have strong doubts about the development of new ad hoc financial instruments. Sufficient funding should be made available in the next multiannual financial framework. The value of biodiversity and ecosystem services should be integrated into our economies. Only then will their costs and benefits be reflected in product prices. That is why the Member States should integrate natural capital into their national accounts. However, that would come up against the current economic and financial crisis, and moreover would expose the States to a huge risk that could prove to be yet another failure on a European level."@en1
