CLIMATE CHANGE AGAIN
01/06/2013 00:00
by MONITOR GLOBAL climate change is the biggest challenge the world faces...That's why we will push for the EU to demonstrate leadership by supporting an increase in the EU emissions reduction target to 30 per cent by 2020 -- the words of Chris Huhne, the Lib Dem Energy and Climate Change minister this week. Mr Huhne is one of the most environmentally-conscious ministers in the Lib-Com coalition -- even to the extent of opposing his department's commitment to nuclear power. His intervention on climate change is timely. The chaos of the Copenhagen climate change conference at the end of last year is fading, a new UN commissioner has taken over the reins and will preside at the next conference in Mexico in December.
