Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Given the abundance of scientific data on the dangerous impact of climate change, culminating in the IPCC report last week, how could the minister possibly assert that the threat of climate change is in any way unclear or that it may or may not impact on our biodiversity in 100 years time? Given the Prime Minister has done a complete U-turn on climate change, does the minister now reject his own earlier views? Here is his opportunity.
