Današnja okoljska izjava pomeni uradni začetek dolgoročne strukturirane notranje politike za doseganje evropskih standardov iz sistema EMAS (Eco-Management and Audit Scheme - Sistem za okoljsko ravnanje in presojo).
However, today’s signing of the Environmental Statement marks the formal start of a proper long-term and structured internal policy which aims to meet European standards contained within EMAS (Eco-Management and Audit Scheme).
V letu 2006 bosta besedilo izjave in nov, okolju prijazen sistem upravljanja Evropskega parlamenta predmet zunanji revizije, s katero naj bi ugotovili, ali izpolnjujeta pogoje EMAS.
During 2006, the text, along with the whole of the European Parliament’s new environmental management system, will be subjected to an external audit aimed at getting the system officially registered within the context of EMAS’s rules and regulations.
Sistem za okoljsko ravnanje in presojo je Evropska unija oblikovala v 90-ih letih in je bil najprej namenjen industriji, od leta 2001 pa zajema vse gospodarske sektorje in javno upravo.
EMAS is a management tool that was devised by the European Union in the 1990s.
Na podlagi sistema lahko gospodarske družbe in institucije ocenijo ter izboljšajo svoja okoljska prizadevanja in pridobijo registracijo ter oznako EMAS o izpolnjevanju standardov.
Initially aimed at industry, the scheme was widened in 2001 to cover all sectors of activity (including public administration) to enable them to assess and improve their environmental performance and to obtain EMAS registration (along with a logo which demonstrates that they are meeting best practice standards).
Evropski parlament je proces začel že leta 2001, najprej z oceno vpliva svojega delovanja na okolje in nato s postavitvijo svojih ciljev.
The European Parliament set to work on this task in 2001 by first of all assessing the environmental impact of its own activities and then by setting itself targets.
Decembra 2005 je predsedstvo parlamenta sprejelo program za okolju prijazno upravljanje in ustanovilo notranjo skupino za njegovo izvajanje.
Finally, in December 2005, its Bureau approved an environmental management programme (supported by a small internal management set-up).
Po zunanji reviziji programa naj bi Evropski parlament pridobil registracijo EMAS do konca leta 2006.
Following validation of the programme by an external audit, the aim is to get EMAS registration for Parliament by the end of 2006.
Besedilo, ki ga je predsednik Borrell podpisal v torek, pravi: "Evropski parlament je ponosen na svojo zavezanost za doseganje ciljev trajnostnega razvoja in učinkovite okoljske politike, kar je že pokazal s svojim prispevkom v zakonodajnem postopku Evropske unije.
In the formal text signed on Tuesday, President Borrell said, "The European Parliament is proud of the commitment to the goals of sustainable development and sound environmental policy that it has shown by its contribution to the law-making process in the European Union.
Sistem za okoljsko ravnanje in presojo nam ponuja priložnost, da lahko svojo zavezanost tem ciljem pokažemo tudi v praksi.
Now the Eco-Management and Audit Scheme offers us the opportunity to show our solidarity with these objectives in a practical way.
Okoljska izjava je izraz želje Evropskega parlamenta, da bi bilo njegovo delovanje v skladu z najboljšimi okoljskimi standardi in čim manj obremenjevalo okolje."
This Environmental Statement is an expression of the European Parliament's will to ensure that its activities are consistent with best current practice in environmental management and cause a minimum of harm to the environment."

Ptičja gripa: poslanci zahtevajo boljšo komunikacijo in več raziskav
Avian Flu: MEPs urge better communication, more research
Potrošniki zahtevajo več informacij
More information needed on avian flu
Ob tem, ko je napovedal govor Markosa Kyprianouja, evropskega komisarja za zdravje in varstvo potrošnikov, je poslanec Florenz pripomnil, kako upa, da je z njim vse v redu, saj je bil nedavno na Kitajskem in v Turčiji, torej v državah, kjer so zabeležili smrtne primere zaradi ptičje gripe.
Introducing Health and Consumer Protection Commissioner Markos Kyprianou, who came to discuss avian flu with the Committee, Mr Florenz said he hoped the Commissioner was well, given his recent visits to China and Turkey, where there have been human deaths from avian influenza.
Dejal je, da v javnosti ni dovolj jasnih informacij glede tega, kakšna je dejanska verjetnost okužbe in kateri varnostne ukrepe je EU že sprejela.
He said that the public lacks clear information about how they can actually catch the disease and what safeguards are in place to protect the EU.
Poslanci je zelo zanimalo, kateri ukrepi za preprečitev izbruha gripe se izvajajo v državah članicah in kako potekajo analize stanja.
MEPs were very keen to hear what measures are being taken at national level to contain any outbreak of the virus and to perform real-time analysis.
Komisar je odgovoril, da je "EU najbolje pripravljena regija na svetu, vendar je treba še veliko storiti - ne smemo zaspati".
The Commissioner said "the EU is still the best prepared region in the world but there is still a lot to do, we can't allow complacency."
Države članice je pozval, naj izboljšajo izmenjavo informacij in ostanejo pozorne pri spremljanju razvoja bolezni.
He urged Member States to improve information exchange and keep alert.
Komisar se je strinjal s člani odbora je soglašal, da so raziskave zelo pomembne, zato je Evropska komisija namenila 100 milijonov evrov za boj proti ptičji gripi v tretjih državah, od tega bo 20 milijonov namenjenih za raziskovalne projekte.
He agreed with committee members that research is very important, which is why of the 100 million euros the European Commission is pledging to support the fight against avian influenza outside the EU, 20 million is committed to research projects.
Poslancem, ki hoteli zvedeti konkretnejše informacije glede načinov okužbe in nevarnosti, v kateri so državljani EU, je komisar Kyprianou pojasnil, da dobro kuhano ali pečeno meso ni nevarno in tudi sicer okužena perutnina v Uniji ne more priti na tržišče, zato "s kombinacijo obojega, ni nevarnosti".
To those MEPs who asked exactly how the disease could be contracted and in what danger EU citizens stand, Mr Kyprianou said that well-cooked meat doesn't contain the disease and in any case, in the EU, sick birds don't get onto the market so "the combination of the two makes it safe."
Dodal je, da je do okužb večinoma prišlo ob stiku s surovim mesom, krvjo in okuženimi živalmi.
He said that many of the problems had arisen from the handling of raw meat, blood and sick animals.
V Turčiji je na primer zbolela oseba, ki je pripravljala hrano, ne pa tisti, ki so jed pojedli: "Če so ljudje osveščeni in upoštevajo minimalne higienske ukrepe, kot je umivanje rok, so možnosti za okužbo bistveno manjše."
Noting that in one Turkish case, someone preparing the meal got sick but the people eating it didn't fall ill, "If people are educated to follow personal hygiene rules...to wash their hands" risks would be reduced.

Sončno nebo za evropske potnike
Sunny skies for EU passengers
Evropsko sodišče je podprlo pravice potnikov
Court of Justice backs air passenger rights
Ste že imeli kdaj probleme z letalskimi poleti?
Have you had problems with flights?
So dolge zamude in odpovedi letov pokvarile vaše načrte?
Have long delays and flight cancellations upset your plans?
Upanje za precejšnje izboljšanje na tem področju prinaša nedavna razsodba Evropskega sodišča o zagotavljanju odškodnin za potnike, ki niso dobili rezerviranega sedeža ali so morali trpeti dolge zamude.
A recent ruling by the European Court of Justice concerning compensation for passengers bumped off flights or faced with long delays could bring significant improvements.
Sodišče je tako dodatno potrdilo pravila, ki jih podpirata tako parlament kot Svet EU in naj bi bolje zaščitila pravice potnikov.
The Court lined up behind rules agreed by the Parliament and ministers which aim to provide better protection to passengers.
Paolo Costa, predsednik parlamentarnega odbora za promet in turizem, je pozdravil odločitev sodišča in dodal, da prinaša nova zakonodaja letalskim potnikom znotraj EU več pravic v primerih odpovedi letov, prepovedi vkrcanja ali pri dolgotrajnih zamudah.
Paolo Costa, the Chairman of the European Parliament's Transport Committee welcomed the Court's decision, noting that the legislation has introduced big improvements to air passenger rights in the EU in the event of flight cancellation, denied boarding or long delays.
Določila za zagotavljanje odškodnin potnikom so začela veljati februarja 2005, vendar sta jih na britanskem sodišču izpodbijali Evropsko združenje nizko-cenovnih prevoznikov (ELFAA) in Mednarodno združenje letalskih prevoznikov (IATA), ki sta trdila, da je zakonodaja diskriminatorna in omejuje izbiro za potrošnike.
The rules to provide compensation to passengers were introduced in February 2005, but were challenged in the British court by the European Low Fares Airline Association (ELFAA) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA), which claimed the legislation was discriminatory and limits consumer choice.
Britansko višje sodišče se je glede vprašanja neskladnosti zakonodaje z evropsko obrnilo na sodišče Evropskih skupnosti.
The British High Court asked the EU court to rule on whether the legislation does infringe EU rules.
Letalska združenja na Evropskem sodišču niso dobila zadoščenja, saj je presodilo, da so "potniki, katerih leti so odpovedani ali imajo dolgotrajne zamude v objektivno drugačnem položaju kot potniki na drugih prevoznih sredstvih v primeru enakih nevšečnosti".
The airline associations got cold comfort at the Court of Justice, which ruled that "passengers whose flights are cancelled or subject to a long delay are in an objectively different situation from that of the passengers on the other means of transport in the event of incidents of the same nature."
Uredba tudi ni v nasprotju z Montrealsko konvencijo, saj uredba določa "takojšnje odškodnine", medtem ko konvencija predvideva možnost, da "potniki lahko posamično zahtevajo odškodnine" za zamude, ugotavlja sodišče.
Moreover, the regulation is not at odds with the Montreal Convention as the former deals with "immediate compensatory measures" while under the latter "passengers may bring actions for damages by way of redress on an individual basis" after a flight has been delayed, the Court said.
Poslanec Costa je izrazil upanje, da je tako primer zaključen ter bosta izvajanje in spoštovanje uredbe v državah članicah pomenila, da ne bo potrebe za vnovične obravnave posameznih primerov na Evropskem sodišču.
Mr Costa said he hoped this would be the end of the matter and that the application and respect of the regulation by EU nations would mean there is no need to bring this issue to the Court of Justice again "in a case-by-case basis."
Določila uredbe zahtevajo od letalskih prevoznikov, da potnikom izplačajo odškodnine oziroma nudijo pomoč v primerih prezasedenosti, odpovedi ali dolgih zamud poletov.
The rules force air carriers to compensate and assist the passengers in cases of overbooking, cancellation or long flight delays.
Odškodnina lahko pomeni obroke hrane in pijačo, možnost brezplačnih telefonskih klicev in, v nekaterih primerih, tudi hotelsko namestitev.
The provisions can include meals and refreshments, telephone calls and in some circumstances even a hotel.
Višina finančnega nadomestila lahko znaša do 600 evrov gotovine, povračilo za letalsko vozovnico in brezplačen polet domov.
The amount of reimbursement can be up to €600 plus a refund of the ticket and a free flight home.

Energetska učinkovitost v Evropi: "Vsak dan odlašanja je napaka"
Energy Efficiency in Europe: "Every day we postpone is a mistake"
Sončni zahod potrate z energijo?
Sun sets on EU energy inefficiency?
Tako je stanje opisal evropski komisar za energetiko Andris Piebalgs na zasedanju parlamentarnega odbora za energetiko s poslanci iz nacionalnih parlamentov, ki je potekalo 24. in 25 januarja.
This was the uncompromising message Energy Commissioner Andris Piebalgs delivered when the European Parliament's Energy committee met counterparts from national Parliaments on 24-25 January.
Evropa se sooča z učinki podnebnih sprememb, drago nafto iz potencialno nenaklonjenih držav ter s "plinskem sporom" med Rusijo in njenimi sosedami, zato sta povečanje energetske učinkovitosti in koordinacija na evropski ravni pomembnejša kot kadarkoli doslej.
With Europe facing the effects of climate change, highly priced oil extracted from unstable or potentially hostile states and the ongoing "gas row" between Russia and her neighbours, improving energy efficiency and measures to coordinate Europe's approach to its energy needs have never been more important.
Leta 2030 bo morala EU 90 odstotkov svojih potreb po nafti in 80 odstotkov potreb po zemeljskem plinu pokriti z uvozom.
The EU will import 90% of its oil and 80% of its gas by 2030, - much of which comes from unstable regions like the Middle East.
Največ dobav pride iz nestabilnih predelov sveta, kot je Bližnji vzhod, nedavne motnje v dobavi plina iz Rusije ter naraščajoče napetosti z Iranom pa so zaskrbljenost samo še povečale.
The recent disruption of supply from Russia and her disputes with her neighbours, added to growing tension with Iran have added to fears over supplies.
Na začetku razprave je predsednik parlamenta Josep Borrell poudaril, da je vse to “pokazalo, kako zelo ranljiva je Evropa v svetu, kjer bo energija vedno bolj pogosto uporabljena kot orožje".
Opening the debate Parliament's President Josep Borrell said all this had "underlined just how vulnerable Europe is" in a world where "energy will increasingly be used as a weapon".
Tehnologija je pot k energetski učinkovitosti
Technology can lead the way in energy efficiency
Poraba energije v stavbah v Evropi predstavlja približno 40 odstotkov vse porabe v EU, od tega predstavlja poraba v gospodinjstvih dve tretjini celotne količine.
Europe's buildings currently account for about 40% of all energy used in the EU - with private households using two-thirds of this.
Že uporaba energetsko varčnih žarnic, ki porabijo petkrat manj elektrike kot navadne, pomeni veliko spremembo.
Just changing to energy saving light bulbs (which use five times less electricity than normal ones) can make a huge difference.
Televizijski aparati in druge naprave, ki so v "stanju pripravljenosti", predstavljajo 10 odstotkov porabe elektrike v gospodinjstvih.
Equally, leaving electrical gadgets such as TVs and videos on "Standby mode" is estimated to account for 10% of all household energy use in the EU.
"Praktična in preizkušena tehnologija za varčevanje pri ogrevanju že obstaja," je poudaril Andrew Warren iz nevladne organizacije Euro ACE.
Moreover the practical and proven technology "already exists" to help save money on heating bills, notes Andrew Warren of the European building sector NGO "Euro ACE".
Pomen tehnologije za povečevanje energetske učinkovitosti je dodatno poudaril španski poslanec iz skupine Evropske ljudske stranke Alejo Vidal-Quadras, ki je sicer tudi poročevalec odbora o tej tematiki.
The technological importance of increasing energy efficiency was driven home by Spanish European People's Party MEP Alejo Vidal-Quadras - the Energy committee's Rapporteur on the subject.
Opozoril je na možnosti, ki jih ponuja v boju proti podnebnim spremembam ponuja tehnologija in bil ob tem kritičen, ker nova finančni perspektivi za obdobje 2007-2013 predvideva zmanjšanje sredstev na tej postavki.
He stressed the opportunities apparent for technology to help fight climate change - although he was critical of attempts to limit EU investment in this area in the new financial perspective for the Union agreed for 2007-2013.
Januarja je začela veljati evropska zakonodaja o energetski učinkovitosti stavb.
His draft report on energy efficiency can be viewed using the link at the bottom of the page.
Določa enotno metodo izračunavanja energetske učinkovitosti za vse stavbe v EU, postavlja minimalne standarde za energetsko učinkovitost in uvaja sistem oznak, ki bo stanovalcem omogočal, da ugotovijo stopnjo energetske učinkovitosti svojih domov.
It establishes a common method for calculating the energy performance of all buildings in the EU, sets minimum standards for energy efficiency and establishes a system of building certification allowing people to see how much energy their homes are using.
Decembra pa so se države članice dogovorile o načrtih za energetsko učinkovitost, s katerimi naj bi zmanjšali potrebe po količini dobavljene energije za končne uporabnike.
In December last year EU members agreed energy efficiency plans to make savings in the energy supplied to end users.
Okoli 70 odstotkov nafte, ki se porabi v EU, predstavlja poraba v prometu in polovico te količine porabijo osebni avtomobili.
Some 70% of oil used in the EU goes into the transport sector with cars being responsible for half of all energy consumption in this sector.
Ker pa se bodo samo število avtomobilov, njihova moč in uporaba tudi povečali, bo ta učinek verjetno izničen, zato bo treba razmisliti o dodatnih ukrepih, kot je na primer davek na gorivo.
However, the increasing numbers, power and usage of vehicles will probably offset these gains and other measures (such as fuel taxes) are one option to improve efficiency.
Jasno je, da bo v prihodnosti energija iz obnovljivih virov vedno bolj pomembna.
It is clear that renewable forms of energy will become ever more important.
Leta 2010 naj bi bilo 12 odstotkov energije v Evropi pridobljene iz obnovljivih virov, kot sta veter in sončna energija.
By 2010, 12% of Europe's energy will derive from reusable sources such as wind and solar power.
Trenutno se v EU proizvaja tri četrtine vse svetovne vetrne energije.
At the moment the EU produces three quarters of all wind energy in the world.
Vendar je treba na tem področju storiti še veliko več.
However, a great deal needs to be done to develop this sector and President Borrell called for "a real public debate" on the issue.
Predsednik Borrell je pozval k pravi javni razpravi o problematiki in pri tem pokazal na absurd, da države s severa Evrope izkoriščajo več sončne energije jot države z juga - torej ostaja še precej manevrskega prostora.
One absurdity he pointed out was that northern EU countries are producing more solar energy than the southern ones - clearly showing there is great room for improvement.
Evropski poslanci nadzorovali zgodovinske palestinske volitve
MEPs oversee historic Palestinian election
Palestinka in evropski poslanec Edward McMillan-Scott na volišču v Betlehemu
Bethlehem: A young Palestinian voter with Edward McMillan-Scott MEP
Obiskali so volišča v Vzhodnem Jeruzalemu, na Zahodnem bregu in v Gazi.
They visited polling stations in East Jerusalem, across the West Bank and Gaza.
Predsednik Parlamenta Josep Borrell je dejal, da "pozdravlja odločnost Palestincev, ki so kljub zelo težkim razmeram odšli na volišča in izrazili svojo voljo.
The Parliament's President Josep Borrell said that he "would like to salute the determination of the Palestinian people.....who in spite of very difficult conditions went in very large numbers to the polling stations to express their democratic choice.
Demokracija je spregovorila - izide je treba spoštovati in sprejeti".
Democracy has spoken, the result must be respected and accepted".
Ob tem pa je tudi opozoril gibanje Hamas, da "uporaba nasilja ni združljiva s pravili demokracije".
However he went on to warn Hamas that the "use of violence is not compatible with the rules of democracy".
Volilni izid je - sicer previdno - pozdravil tudi parlamentarni odbor za zunanje zadeve.
The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Parliament also gave the result a cautious welcome.
Na seji odbora minuli četrtek so poslanci Bruslju pozvali Hamas, da naj se odreče nasilju in prizna državo Izrael.
Meeting in Brussels last Thursday members called on Hamas to cease violence and recognise the State of Israel.
Prisotna je bila tudi evropska komisarka za zunanje zadeve Benita Ferrero-Waldner , ki je volitve označila za uspeh, saj so večinoma potekale mirno.
Also present was the European Commissioner for External Relations Benita Ferrero-Waldner, who termed the elections a "success" as they had been largely peaceful.
Opazovanje volitev je ena od rednih delovnih nalog Evropskega parlamenta.
Electoral observation missions are a regular part of the European Parliament’s work.
V letu 2005 je bilo takšnih misij 18, od Afganistana do Bolivije.
There were 18 such missions in 2005, covering countries from Afghanistan to Bolivia.
Prisotnost mednarodnih opazovalcev zmanjšuje verjetnost volilnih nepravilnosti ali prevar in prispeva k večjemu zaupanju ljudi v demokratičnost volilnih postopkov v tistih državah, ki še nimajo demokratične tradicije.
The presence of international observers reduces the risk of electoral fraud and can help increase confidence in an electoral process in countries without a longstanding democratic tradition.
Palestinske volitve, ki so potekale na zasedenih ozemljih in v ozračju napetosti med različnimi političnimi skupinami, so predstavljale za opazovalce poseben izziv.
The Palestinian election, taking place in occupied territories and after reports of tension between different Palestinian factions, presented a particular challenge for election observers.
Opazovalce je vodil britanski konservativec Edward McMillan-Scott , ki je tudi eden od podpredsednikov parlamenta.
They were led by British Conservative MEP Edward McMillan-Scott, who is also a Vice-President of Parliament.
Kot je za takšne naloge običajno, so bili del večje, dolgoročne opazovalne misije EU, ki jo sestavljajo tudi poklicni opazovalci voltev.
As usual for this type of mission, they were working closely alongside a wider, long term EU observation mission, made up of professional election observers.
Razširjeno delegacijo Unije je sicer vodila evropska poslanka Veronique de Keyser , belgijska socialdemokratka.
This overall EU observation was also led by an MEP, in this case Belgian socialist Veronique de Keyser.
