EMERGENT MOTION

389. Councillor Barber moves, seconded by Councillor Branscombe, that pursuant to section 18.2 of the Council Procedure By-law leave be given for the introduction of an emergent motion with respect to The Stockholm Appeal on Climate Change. CARRIED

Councillor Barber moves, seconded by Councillor Branscombe, that:

WHEREAS, a global reduction in the emissions of carbon dioxide (CO,) and its significant contribution to the creation of greenhouse gases (GHG) is necessary to slow climate change and reduce the risks to our economy, human health, the physical environment and quality of life: and,

WHEREAS human activities have caused a dramatic increase in the amount of carbon dioxide (COJ in the earth's atmosphere. Since the mid 1700s, the concentration of CO, has risen from about 280 parts per million (ppm) to reach 387 ppm in 2009. This is amount is likely the highest concentration in the atmosphere in the past 20 million years; and,

WHEREAS evidence presented in the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) November 2007 report indicates that "Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, as is now evident from observations of increases in global average air and

Page 24: G. - London, Ontariocouncil.london.ca/councilarchives/reports and... · Barber, W. J. Polhill and G. Hume and Councillors R. Caranci, W. J. Armstrong, B. R. ... a certificate of approval

ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice and rising global average sea level” and “Most of the observed increase in global average temperatures since the mid- 20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic GHG concentrations. It is likely that there has been significant anthropogenic warming over the past 50 years averaged over each continent (except Antarctica)”; and,

WHEREAS reducing greenhouse gases makes economic sense. New and improved infrastructure, renewable energy technologies, energy efficiency, energy conservation, waste reduction, building retrofits, transit, walking, cycling, water conservation, better fleet management, more effective wastewater treatment and distribution, etc., can reduce short-term and/or long-term municipal operating costs and help maintain community services, while having a positive impact on the environment; and,

WHEREAS the impacts of climate change as well as the responsibility for mitigation will fall primarily on the municipalities; and,

WHEREAS in December, national governments from around the world will meet in Copenhagen, Denmark to negotiate terms and conditions of a global climate agreement for the period after 2012 (Le., after the Kyoto Protocol). It is critical that Canada has the support it needs during these negotiations to conclude negotiations: and,

WHEREAS mayors and municipal leaders responsible for the well-being of communities across Canada have urged federal and provincial/territorial governments to make climate protection a priority;

BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Corporation of the City of London send a strong message to the Federal Government of Canada of the importance to the citizens and businesses of the City of London of a world-wide climate agreement;

AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED we encourage municipalities across Ontario and Canada to join the City of London in requesting the Federal Government to make every effort to reach an international agreement on climate change.

AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED we urge the Federation of Canadian Municipalities to rally the support of its membership and send a strong message to the Federal Government of Canada of the importance to the citizens and businesses of a world-wide climate agreement. CARRIED
