"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the last quote I want to make is from the Chinese. They have recognised the dangers and the problem we are in and they say in a white paper prepared by the Supreme Council of the Chinese Government:- \"Extreme climate phenomena such as high temperatures, heavy precipitation and severe drought has increased in frequency and in density. The world is in danger\". Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I continue, I want to say this: There is no time to waste and to lose. We have to move as quickly as we can as a country and as the world in response to what was originally seen in 1979 at the First World Conference on climate change. At that world conference, it was noted that there were increasing temperatures. It was also agreed there that we 3298 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES November 5, 2008 hold as many conferences in future. In 1988, Malta introduced the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change Convention. I think it was fitting for Malta to do so because within the problems of climate change is the danger of small islands. Malta is a small island in the Mediterranean Sea. As the sea rises, such small islands are bound to be swallowed by the waters."
