Scottish Government Priorities: Tackling the Climate Emergency
The motion
As an amendment to motion S6M-13759 in the name of Gillian Martin (Scottish Government Priorities: Tackling the Climate Emergency), after "transition" insert "; recognises that this is currently not happening at the pace required by climate science, and that Scotland’s emission cuts since targets were first set have been inadequate; believes that significant policy change is required to achieve emission cuts, especially in transport, land use and heating; agrees with the UN Secretary General’s description of fossil fuel companies as 'the godfathers of climate chaos'; further agrees that investment in new fossil fuel production and infrastructure cannot be justified".
