1. Recalls its abovementioned resolution of 21 May 2008, and in particular the fact that all efforts to curb emissions should aim at staying well below the objective of limiting global temperature increases to below 2°C, inasmuch as a level of warming of that magnitude would already impact heavily on our society and individual lifestyles and would also entail significant changes in ecosystems and water resources; is deeply concerned about the fact that, as indicated by many recent scientific reports, climate change is both more rapid and more serious in terms of its adverse effects than was previously thought; consequently, calls on th ...[+++]e Commission to closely monitor and analyse the latest scientific findings with a view to assessing, in particular, whether the EU 2°C target would still achieve the aim of avoiding dangerous climate change;

9. Stresses the need for strong cooperation between the UN Environment Programme, the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and the WTO, and asks the Commission to develop an initiative to support this aim; asks for swift progress to be made in updating the WTO's definition of environmental goods and services, particularly in the current Doha Round negotiations, but recommends, as a starting point, a specific link to climate change, in order to reach agreement on the removal of tariff and non-tariff barriers to 'green' goods and services that prevent or slow the dissemination of low carbon technologies; calls on the Commission to b ...[+++]uild a consensus on granting Multilateral Environment Agreement (MEA) Secretariats observer status at all meetings of the WTO that are relevant to MEA issues; stresses that a lasting solution must contain a strong political message that respects an appropriate division of labour between the WTO and MEA regimes, based on core competencies; is convinced of the need to redefine the responsibilities of the WTO Committee on Trade and Environment; recommends launching a study on possible amendments to the WTO Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights in order to allow for the compulsory licensing of environmentally necessary technologies, within the framework of clear and stringent rules for the protection of intellectual property, and the strict monitoring of their implementation worldwide;

6. Welcomes the fact that rapidly industrialising developing countries appear to be becoming more deeply committed to a climate change dialogue and to exploring innovative ways of fighting and adapting to climate change;

With rapid demographic changes, the next decades will put enormous and increasing pressure on the world’s resources, whether in terms of climate change, natural resources, biodiversity, or the wealth gap between North and South.
