"I voted in favour of this report because water is arguably the most important of all public goods. Equitable water management is essential for ensuring that all ecosystems receive a sufficient quantity of good quality water to function properly and provide essential services to our society and economy. Current trends in water use are often unsustainable due to inefficient practices resulting in water wastage. Water infrastructure systems are often outdated, whether in the most developed regions or in the less developed regions. There is also a lack of information about actual performance and losses. Furthermore, inadequately cleaned wastewater continues to pollute the seas around the shores of the EU, so that it is essential to speed up the development of sewage treatment infrastructure in the Member States. The Europe 2020 strategy stipulates a more responsible use of resources. The future of industry in Europe depends on finding effective responses to the current water challenges and on managing existing water resources, which directly affect human health, energy production, agriculture and food security, both responsibly and efficiently."@en1
