"I am in favour. The conservatives’ desire to weaken the text aside, I welcome the excellent resolution adopted today by Parliament. This ambitious, purposeful and responsible position is the impetus needed to end the environmental and social crisis. I welcome the signal sent by Parliament concerning the ‘green economy’ concept on which the Earth Summit will focus: ‘no’ to the commercialisation and privatisation of public goods, ‘no’ to the reproduction of models that have led us to where we are today, and ‘yes’ to an economy that consumes fewer resources, is fairer and is rooted in environmental sustainability and social justice.
As Sandrine Bélier, a member of the Committee on the Environment, said: ‘20 years on, what will we say to Severn Suzuki? What response will we give if another child takes the floor in Rio in 2012 and informs us of his or her fear for the future, of his or her failure to understand the inequalities that exist on the planet, and urges us to act before it is too late?’ The resolution that we have adopted today is an initial response; Parliament has risen to the challenges."@en1
