With the launch of the WEO 2008 in Berlin, Astrid Klug, Parliamentary State Secretary at the ministry, said "The report shows once more: We need a global energy turnaround to keep climate change in a controllable frame and to prevent an increase of the average temperature of more than two degrees Celsius. The message of the World Energy Outlook is clear: We need a long term and sustainable strategy. The community of states has to set the course for this 2009 in Copenhagen and must define effective emission reduction targets."
