Sir Mark Moody-Stuart, Chairman of Anglo American

"The report has some excellent proposals on practical and electorally acceptable proposals for changes to regulatory frameworks on energy efficiency of appliances, buildings and vehicles which would take a significant step towards reducing our climate impact.

Such steps are critical if we are to make progress in this area and should have all party support. Proposals on fisheries and water are also eminently sensible. I am glad too to see strong support for carbon trading and setting a price for carbon, with emphasis on major businesses."
