Would it be fair to say that there's a level of discomfort in the public about the lack of openness and transparency in making regulations in the environmental field, and therefore there's all the more reason for the public support to actually have these targets prescribed in legislation and in an open debate?</p>",

Est-il juste de dire que le public s'inqui\u00e8te du manque d'ouverture et de transparence de la prise de r\u00e8glements dans le domaine environnemental, et que c'est une raison de plus de vouloir que ces cibles soient inscrites dans une loi et un d\u00e9bat ouvert?</p>"
