WRITTEN QUESTION E-2836/99 by Eija-Riitta Korhola (PPE-DE) to the Commission (18 January 2000) Subject: Future of research on climate change When does the Commission expect that research on climate change will no longer be needed, or could be limited to a few areas, and on what basis? Joint answer to Written Questions E-2836/99 and E-2837/99 given by Mr Busquin on behalf of the Commission (10 February 2000) Research on climate change is a long-term approach since it involves basic understanding of the complex earth system, its evolution and change, prediction, detection and monitoring or documentation of changes. Given the non-linearity of earth system and the political significance of the issue it is desirable to continue Community support for an undetermined period of time. Priorities need to be set as is the case for the recent call.
