"Madam President, a crisis should not only be a time for action but also for reflection. Getting the climate package together will not only save the climate – saving us from disasters and epidemics and avoiding costs – but is also the best preparation for times to come. In a recession we must prepare for the time afterwards and for new markets. I think that there is a danger today of us throwing good money after bad.
When we are over this, will consumers really want to buy a big high-consumption car, or will they want a small, smart car? I once had a professor in my student days who said: ‘when in doubt, leave it out’. What we need instead is a green new deal for investments, innovation research and energy smart technology, including in cars. We need a green new deal for new jobs and new wealth in a sustainable way.
The ALDE Group will work for an open, green, safe and entrepreneurial Europe, and in these areas we will support the Commission’s work programme."@en1
