13. Supports the development of local food networks and direct producer-to-consumer sale, in order to help decouple food prices from rising fossil fuel prices affecting the long distance transport of food; believes that more sustainable and local farming practices will also reduce the input costs of fertiliser and feed; calls on the Commission to propose within the WTO an initiative to evaluate commodity price stabilisation and other supply management tools; calls on the EIB to investigate possibilities for the immediate set-up of a guarantee fund in support of national micro-credit schemes and risk-hedging schemes that operate close ...[+++]to the needs of local food producers, especially in poorer developing countries;

After all – as the Commissioner has just said – the increase in the price of fossil fuels has been universal, and thus the competitive starting position of our competitors has been equally affected.

35. Points out, with regard to energy, that Europe is currently dependent on fossil fuels as its main source of energy; considers that, while dependency on fossil fuels must be reduced, it is also imperative to achieve energy security for Europe; believes that this means diversifying its sources of fossil fuels, while trying to maintain energy at affordable prices; considers that energy sectors in Member States must be opened up and real competition must be achieved; considers that energy efficiency must be improved through RD and ...[+++] mainstreaming of 'best practices'; considers that, with high oil and gas prices in the long run, Europe must be able to reduce its exposure in this area; considers also that Europe should strongly consider moving towards an internal energy market, to distribute its energy more efficiently within the EU, and counter its dependency on energy from outside the Union; considers that the share of renewable energy must be increased in order to reduce the dependence on fossil fuels; considers that RD in this area should be intensified and diverse local solutions should be favoured in order to make best use of available renewable sources of energy;

It is the fact that human population is growing at unprecedented and unsustainable levels.
