Welcoming the publication of a Dutch report on the economic implications of tackling climate change, Liberal Democrat Shadow Secretary of State for the Environment, Norman Baker MP said:

"To the dwindling band of sceptics who still say climate change is not happening, I say what do we lose by making energy use more efficient, by cutting emissions from cars, by cutting emissions from industry? We gain healthier places to live, a cleaner planet, and more efficient energy production."
