"I voted in favour of this report by my Finnish colleague in the Socialist Group Riitta Myller.
At the mid-term stage this text paints a worrying picture of the state of progress of the Sixth Community Environment Action Programme (2002-2012).
The implementation of the vital measures to combat climate change is hugely delayed. Similarly, the EU has made extremely limited progress on the preservation of air quality, implementation and enforcement of Community legislation, protection of biodiversity, reform of environmentally harmful subsidies, and promotion of sustainable production/consumption models.
The analysis provided in the report is alarming, to say the least, because at present, contrary to the Commission’s statements, it seems highly unlikely that we will stick to the timetable set out six years ago and meet the priority environmental targets in 2012.
By voting in favour of this text, I am joining with the majority of Parliament to urge the European Commission and the Member States to make a crucial final effort."@en1
