Deputy Speaker, I move without notice:
That the House -
1) notes that the United Nations designated 5 June as World Environment Day;
2) further notes that on 15 December 1972 the United Nations elected to dedicate a day on which the international community could reflect upon the state of the environment and to heighten global awareness;
3) recognises that there are several challenges facing our environment, such as the issue of global warming, greenhouse gas emissions, the depletion of fossil fuel resources and scarce water resources; and
4) acknowledges that it is essential that our government continues to adopt measures to preserve the environment.
Agreed to.
