Proceeding contribution from Lord Deben (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 October 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Climate Change.


Climate Change

Does my hon. Friend agree that a blatant example of the Government’s double standards in international affairs was that they joined the dirty countries in Europe to vote against Austria and Denmark’s proposal that we should put a date on the banning of HFCs? At this moment, the Government are having four HFC chillers installed in their refurbished former Home Office building—chillers that use a gas that is 2,000 times as bad for global warming as CO2.
