Environmental Concerns Raised By Park Hall Junior School

EDM number 1672 in 2010-12, proposed by Valerie Vaz on 30/03/2011.
Categorised under the topic of Schools.

That this House congratulates the School Council of Park Hall Junior School in Walsall for raising their concerns about the environmental impacts of chemical fertilisers; notes that they propose restrictions on the use of chemical fertilisers that can leach from farms and gardens into the water system, killing fish and adversely impacting ecosystems and the food chain; further notes their concerns over these detrimental effects, for example, damage to coral reefs where algae blooms prevent the growth of healthy plankton which in turn prevents sunlight and oxygen from reaching marine life; and calls on the Government to monitor, evaluate and act upon the impacts of agricultural chemicals onthe natural environment.

This motion has been signed by a total of 6 MPs.
