Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Peter Ainsworth (Conservative), on Wednesday, 3 December 2008, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 54 members in total.


CLIMATE CHANGE AND BIODIVERSITY

That this House notes with concern the negative impact climate change will have on biodiversity and the challenges wildlife will face migrating through increasingly damaged and fragmented landscapes; acknowledges that a landscape scale approach is required to help the environment to better adapt to change, provide ecological services such as flood prevention and pollution reduction and accommodate wildlife movement; and therefore calls on the Government to facilitate this through promotion of a holistic approach incorporating a range of bodies at local, regional and central government level as well as private organisations and individuals.
