Proceeding contribution from Christopher Chope (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 10 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill.


Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill

My right hon. Friend has referred to methane: UK methane emissions have dropped by 50 per cent. since 1999 and now form only 7 per cent. of total UK emissions—agriculture and landfill are the main methane producers. Will my right hon. Friend accept that that is another area in which the figures have decreased significantly? The Government seem to want a global figure rather than considering each greenhouse gas separately.
