Tony Blair must change his ways on environment - Baker

3.38.06pm GMT Tue 28th Feb 2006

In response to Tony Blair's letter to the Stop Climate Chaos coalition, the Liberal Democrats have re-released their six-point 'dossier of shame', which reveals the extent of Labour's shameful record on tackling climate change.

Commenting on the dossier, Liberal Democrat Shadow Environment Secretary, Norman Baker MP, said "As our dossier shows, Labour's record on climate change is a shameful one.

"Carbon Dioxide emissions are rising: the Government is clearly in reverse gear when it comes to tackling climate change.

"Tony Blair may have talked big on the international stage on climate change, but the record of his Labour Government appears to be one of complete failure.

"I call on Labour again to enter into a cross-party dialogue to reach political consensus on how we can achieve the real CO2 reductions needed."
