"Everyone is responsible for protecting the environment, and any political agenda wishing to be responsible has to prioritise it. I support reducing emissions of toxic gases into the atmosphere wherever possible, and I want us to be able to move towards industrial production, and the use of vehicles, technologies and machines that pollute ever less. However, changes that are too rapid and requirements that are too stringent in relation to how machines and vehicles are operated could threaten jobs and the viability of numerous companies and farms. We therefore need to seek a fair balance between conflicting interests, bearing in mind that people and the continuation of their activities cannot be taken in isolation from their surroundings. In this case, this balance has been sought by granting manufacturers more time to develop systems that are more environmentally adequate."@en1
