"I welcome this report. A healthy environment and a high level of environmental protection are prerequisites for guaranteeing quality of life as well as preserving the stability of ecosystems. Environment Action Programmes have guided the development of EU environment policy since the early seventies. They have been a powerful driver for the adoption of strong EU environment legislation, notably in areas such as air, water, waste and climate. Protection of our environment increases quality of life, notably by safeguarding ecosystems and their services, halting the loss of biodiversity, ensuring better air quality, less noise, as well as by creating jobs and growth and by ensuring well-being for current and future generations. The current 6th Environment Action Programme (6EAP), which was the first one to be adopted by codecision, will expire in July 2012. Its final assessment, published on 31 August 2011, concluded that on balance, the 6th EAP has provided an overarching framework for environment policy, during which environmental legislation has been consolidated and substantially completed, and that its adoption by codecision has increased its legitimacy and has helped create a sense of ownership for subsequent policy proposals."@en1
