Will EU take the lead in Poznan or will they wait for others to act? And what about Copenhagen 2009??

After spending 24 hours in Brussels listening to people inside the EU system I am concerned! What happened to the active EU at Bali saying 25 – 40 % reductions in industrialised countries?

Now it sounds like they will be satisfied with 20 % and maybe 30% reductions, but that will be tough anyway. And that is not just the domestic responsibilities. In this 20 – 30% they will count JI/CDM as being more cost effective than doing it as a “home work”.

It sounds to me like they don’t want to change or wait a little bit longer.
It is a moral obligation to act first domestic and also help developing countries to make a leap over the fossil period.

EU must act proactive. This is an opportunity seldom given to change. This is the chance of a lifetime to start the walk on the road of sustainability. And those who will be first will also be those who will have the technique to offer.
Come on EU and member states! Leave the fossil thinking behind. Think outside the box! The people of Europe doesn´t need to consume all the energy they do. We want to live more simple and not depend on insecure energy sources that being used as a political force. We want a mix of different energies that is renewable cause we know that we only have one earth.
