"I supported this own-initiative report on Blue Growth. However, I regret that the report presents the view that the marine environment is only a section for consideration within Blue Growth, instead of presenting a healthy marine ecosystem as a fundamental prerequisite within which any other sectoral ‘blue’ policies operate. This disagreement with the report is a fundamental one, but I hope this issue is better addressed in other legislative proposals (e.g. on maritime spatial planning).
Whilst amendments which called for a ban on Arctic oil and gas exploration, and for ship emission limits, were not supported in TRAN, most of the report is fine, underlining the importance of key issues for the Green/EFA group: smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, based on an eco-system approach; using the precautionary principle to assess proposals; protecting sustainable maritime sea basin strategy and developing island and coastal tourism.
The report goes on to call for the development of opportunities for ‘clean ships’ that are more energy-efficient and produce less emissions, the construction of a North Sea Offshore Grid for renewable energy, more efficient use of resources and enhanced recycling policies (as an alternative to sea mining), and notes the employment opportunities this approach presents."@en1
