Greenhouse Gas Emissions

EDM number 923 in 2003-04, proposed by Anne McIntosh on 29/03/2004.

That this House notes the Government's recent announcement of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas emission levels in 2003; is extremely disappointed to note that carbon emissions have increased by 1.5 per cent. since 2002; further notes that in 1997, 152.9 million tonnes of carbon were emitted and 152.5 million tonnes were emitted in 2003; and therefore calls on the Government to explain why, despite so much being said by the Government on this subject, so little has been done to reduce this figure further.

This motion has been signed by a total of 63 MPs.
