The Bill will give the Environmental Protection Agency power to regulate greenhouse gases in order to meet our obligations under the Kyoto Protocol. As we are currently struggling to meet them, I applaud the Minister for his efforts in that regard. Our generation has benefited from the technological revolution but the environment has paid a price as a result of that process. When one considers that the earth has been in existence for billions of years, a human lifespan gives us but a short lease on the earth's wellbeing. It behoves us to ensure we can stand over our legacy and that it will not prove detrimental to future generations. I applaud any initiatives taken in that regard.
