What Delara spoke about.

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen. With the Fit for 55 package, we can get fit for Paris. We can also bring to life the 'at least' in 'at least 55% by 2030', as much bigger and faster steps are needed by 2030. Protecting our soils and forests better and restoring them to good condition will be crucial. However, the climate performance of bogs, forests and meadows is not a panacea. The forestry and land use sector must not only become a kind of egg-laying woolly milk sow in order to degrade missed greenhouse gas reductions in other sectors. We need both: rapid decarbonisation of all sectors and more natural carbon sinks. But our responsibility does not end at our borders, we have to reduce our footprint worldwide. We therefore need an EU law against imported deforestation as soon as possible. As Social Democrats, we are ready to speed up and take responsibility.

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen. To describe the Green Deal, the image of the watermelon fits quite well: Green on the outside and red on the inside. At first glance, it is about climate goals, species protection, air pollution. But a look under the shell shows: It is also about social progress. Our economies are closely linked to climate change, species extinction and pollution. At the same time, social inequalities are growing. The Green Deal Let me show you that things can be different. It is the vision of a Europe where all people can live well, within planetary boundaries. It lays important foundations, but we need the new Environmental Action Programme to keep the EU on track beyond this legislature, with social, environmental objectives and review and follow-up mechanisms. It was therefore important to clarify the Commission's proposal here: We must put human well-being, health and the protection of our natural resources at the heart of our policies, not renewable growth.
