Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 October 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Climate Change (Political Response).

Climate Change (Political Response)

May I gently suggest to the hon. Gentleman and the House as a whole that a debate on the UK’s political response to climate change on the Liberal Democrat motion—the Government amendment is hardly better—is monstrous, because the motion says nothing about adapting to climate change? As he has said, people are already dying from climate change. We need to take adaptation just as seriously as the mitigation of emissions.
