Proceeding contribution from David Miliband (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 October 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Climate Change.
Climate Change
We certainly should protect our sea defences, but many people will ask why the right hon. Gentleman has voted against increasing the flood defence budget over the past 10 years, which has happened under this Government. Secondly, his point that our emissions represent only 2 per cent. of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions should never be an excuse for us not to take the action that is necessary as our contribution to addressing this global problem. However, I do want to address the international issues.
