Biodiversity

EDM number 89 in 2007-08, proposed by Anne McIntosh on 06/11/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Biodiversity, Climate change, Environmental protection and Nature conservation.

That this House welcomes the EU commitment to halt biodiversity loss by 2010, but notes with concern that the European Commissioner for the Environment believes the UK is still far from meeting this target; recognises the inextricable link between biodiversity and the health of the planet, and therefore the concern that climate change may alter distribution, abundance, behaviour, phenology and morphology to an extent which threatens species with previously healthy population levels; and urges the Government to recognise the importance of action to mitigate the threats to plant and animal life.

This motion has been signed by a total of 33 MPs.
