Climate Change

David Rutley Excerpts

Wednesday 30th November 2016 Commons Chamber

[David Rutley (Macclesfield) (Con)]

I rise to present a petition of over 1,100 residents of the Macclesfield constituency on the subject of climate change.

The petition states:

The petition of residents of Macclesfield,

Declares that climate changes impacts upon both people and places; further that the rapid progress towards ratification of the Paris Agreement is to be applauded; further that the UK requires a low carbon investment plan to transform the economy in line with the Climate Change Act 2008; and further that 1,100 individuals have signed a local petition on the same matter.

The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to publish an ambitious low carbon investment plan.

And the petitioners remain, etc.
