Climate Change And Energy Production
EDM number 1019 in 2007-08, proposed by Colin Challen on 22/02/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Coal, Energy, Planning and Sustainable development.
That this House recognises the global imperative of tackling climate change; notes the importance of decarbonising the UK's energy production in order to meet this imperative; is therefore concerned by current plans to develop over 10GW of new coal power stations in Britain, resulting in 50 million extra tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions from the UK economy per annum; and asks the Secretary of State for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform to hold a public inquiry before making a decision on the application for consent to build a new coal-fired power station at Kingsnorth in Kent, in order that full consideration is given to the implications of the proposed development for the UK's climate change and energy policies.
This motion has been signed by a total of 235 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
