Amendments (4)

Amendment 26 #
Motion for a resolution
Recital H
H. whereas recent scientific studies have delivered further proof of the anthropogenic disturbance of the earth's atmosphere; whereas the physical science of climate change is assessing the concrete implications of already existing levels of global warming caused by historic emissions; whereas the data collected from such studies underline the urgent need for adaptation and mitigation measures to be implemented in order to limit serious risk to humans and the infrastructure, first and foremost in the developing world but also in Europe and other wealthier parts of the world,

Amendment 36 #
Motion for a resolution
Recital J
J. whereas the scientific consensus as expressed in IPCC AR4 leads to the conclusion that the level of global GHG emissions must be at least halvreduced by 2050% to avoid serious risks; whereas this target has been endorsed by the EU Heads of State and Heads of Government at the meeting of the G8 at Heiligendamm85% compared to 2000 to avoid serious risks; whereas it will be increasingly difficult to achieve this target if global GHG emissions continue to rise until 2020 and beyond; whereas nearly all Member States are making good or even excellent progress in their efforts to comply with their individual EU burden-sharing targets, thus raising the likelihood that the EU will reach its Kyoto target by 2012; whereas, nevertheless, after 2012 Member States will have to reduce GHG emissions in a more ambitious way if they are to meet the targets adopted at the above-mentioned European Council on 8-9 March 2007 and to halve their GHG emissions by 205, to be achieved collectively by developed countries, of reducing their GHG emissions by 60% to 80% by 2050 compared to 1990,

Amendment 103 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 8 a (new)
8a. Believes that more scientific research should be focusing on the impact and role of land use and forests and their possible contribution to offsetting GHG emissions, and on the impact and role of oceans and seas;

Amendment 109 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 9
9. Believes that the communication of scientific evidence of human impact on the global climate must be the main element of a broader effort to raise public awareness and subsequently gain and maintain public support for political measures to curb carbon emissions; asks the IPCC to publish a summary of its assessment reports for the public; believes, furthermore, that individual changes in lifestyle patterns are necessary and should be a part of educational attemptprogrammes to communicate the causes and effects of global warming, but that they cannot be imposed by political decisions;
