Summing Up

66.       The environment is a complex system. There are no magic bullets, no quick fixes, and certainly no easy laws that can quickly solve environmental problems. It is imperative that we set our goals before it is too late and work relentlessly to achieve them. Whilst the Government will work proactively to achieve these goals, success hinges on the recognition and participation of the community. The Council for Sustainable Development will continue to play an active role engaging the public to formulate and implement environmental protection policies and measures. I encourage all members of the community to render, from this moment onwards, full support to energy conservation. I appeal to the trade and industry sectors to do their bit to protect the environment by means such as adopting comprehensive clean production and green procurement methods in their operations. With patience and perseverance, and through shared responsibility, we will create for ourselves a cleaner and better place in which to live and work.
