UN Climate Summit 2014

As an amendment to motion S4M-11029 in the name of Paul Wheelhouse (UN Climate Summit 2014), leave out from second “notes” to "climate justice" and insert “welcomes the Prime Minister’s speech at the summit in which he highlighted that the UK has cut greenhouse gas emissions by one quarter and was on track to cut emissions by 80% by 2050; further welcomes the Prime Minister’s summit pledge to push European Union leaders to come to Paris with an offer to cut emissions by at least 40% by 2030; is of the opinion that the Scottish Government would have more credibility on climate change issues if it had not repeatedly failed to meet its own greenhouse gas emission reduction targets”.
