Life And Legacy Of Sir Peter Scott

EDM number 1083 in 2008-09, proposed by David Drew on 12/03/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Nature conservation.

That this House takes the opportunity of his centenary year to commend the outstanding contribution to international conservation made by Sir Peter Scott, recognising his pioneering work to save endangered species and habitats and the access he gave people to the natural world; notes his groundbreaking wildlife broadcasts and his establishment of the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust (WWT) in Slimbridge, the first of what would become a UK network of wetland visitor centres; and commends the work of the WWT, a wonderful legacy of Sir Peter's activities, and its ongoing work to protect wetland species and habitats at risk, bringing people and wildlife closer together in order to help meet conservation challenges for the 21st century.

This motion has been signed by a total of 43 MPs.
