"Madam President, Mr Dimas, Mr Borloo, ladies and gentlemen, it is time to act. The package of legislation that we are debating allows us to do so. Although the outcome of this package is not exceptional, we should feel reasonably pleased.
If it is adopted tomorrow, it will send out a clear signal to other countries that the European Union is committed and is leading the fight against climate change.
Addressing this climate change and the transition to a low-consumption, low-carbon society is a key global priority. This legislation will enable us to plan future investment to reduce emissions, especially through energy efficiency and the gradual dismantling of those obsolete plants that emit huge amounts of CO
.
I would like to thank everyone – especially Mrs Doyle – who has enabled us to be here now, feeling pleased at having a package of legislation that I hope we will adopt tomorrow."@en1
