Climate Change

Proceeding contribution from Ian Pearson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 May 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Climate Change.
I said that our target was a reduction of at least 60 per cent. in CO2 emissions by 2050 from 1990 levels. I stressed that the figure was for CO2 only. The figures in the Commission document at the spring Heads of State summit referred to a 60 to 80 per cent. reduction in CO2 equivalents by developed countries, so if the impact of non-CO2 emissions is included, our approach is broadly consistent with that of the Commission.
