WWF Cymru @ the Assembly
Minister helps promote a One Planet Wales
Jane Davidson, Minister for Sustainability and Rural Development, helped to highlight how everyone in Wales is using more than their fair share of the planet's natural resources at our 'One Planet Wales' event at the National Assembly in July.
WWF Cymru says the Welsh Assembly Government has an important role to play in helping people live within the planet's natural capacity. Our homes, our communities and our lifestyles – what we buy and consume, the energy we use and what we do with our waste – all have an impact on our environment.
"If everyone lived the same way we do in Wales we would need three planets to sustain us," says Morgan Parry, Head of WWF Cymru. "Our over-consumption is leading directly to climate change, species extinction and the collapse of fish stocks. We can solve this problem by moving to different – but better, healthier and happier – ways of living, which we call One Planet lifestyles."
Many Assembly members and party leaders representing all four major political parties joined the event to learn more about One Planet Wales.
