I know that those parties want to use nuclear energy to get us out of our greenhouse gas problems, but there are some problems with that, mainly in the mining of uranium for the nuclear industry and what is done with the waste.

The aim is to improve the security of energy supply through reduced dependence on imported liquid hydrocarbons and to address the problem of greenhouse gas emissions from transport.

* enlisting the scientific and technological resources of the European Union and of third countries in initiatives that provide a response to significant world problems of concern to the Community such as food safety, environmental safety (greenhouse effects, desertification, biodiversity and natural resources, seismic risks, etc.) or health and major diseases connected with poverty.

It has prepared a report for the Council of Ministers analysing the problem and it presents a series of conclusions: - emissions of chlorofluorocarbons (cfcs) should be virtually eliminated by the year 2000 through revision of the Montreal protocol; - discussions should begin on an international agreement for protection of the atmosphere; - the Community should launch a major study programme to evaluate the feasibility, costs and likely results of measures to limit greenhouse gas emissions; - the policy decisions of the Community a ...[+++]nd its member countries should take into account the problem of potential climate changes linked to the greenhouse effect; - there should be urgent action to reinforce energy saving, improve energy efficiency, develop new energy sources and the use of safe nuclear technology; - the Community should sustain vigorous research programmes and promote new energy technologies with the potential to limit carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and to assess the impact of the greenhouse effect on European regions; - aid should be provided for developing countries to work out measures of prevention and adaptation - for instance mapping vulnerable areas such as low-lying coastal areas, assessing the long-term sensitivity of development projects and being prepared for increasingly severe natural disasters ./ (*) COM(88) 656 - 2 - A need to respond Mr Stanley Clinton Davis, member of the Commission responsible for environment policy, stressed that the Community should respond to the challenge: "The greenhouse effect will become increasingly apparent during our own lifetimes, building to a major crisis within a generation.

They share the same problems: poor air quality, high levels of traffic and congestion, very high levels of ambient noise, poor-quality built environment, derelict land, greenhouse gas emissions, urban sprawl, and waste and sewage disposal.
