Diolch yn fawr iawn, Prif Weinidog. I'm very grateful for the work the Welsh Government is doing on this issue in leading the way. In my own constituency, Ysgol Golftyn are a prime example of leading the way on this particular issue. I was written to by every year 2 pupil from the school just recently, and I was invited to the school to answer challenging questions about climate change. The letters and the questions raised the importance of recycling and concerns about the melting polar ice caps and the impact it has on wildlife, and in particular, polar bears. When I attended the school last Friday to answer these seriously challenging questions by the year 2 pupils, I was impressed by their knowledge and understanding. So, First Minister, will you pass your congratulations on to the pupils and staff at Ysgol Golftyn in Alyn and Deeside, and will you ask your officials to look at the work they are doing as the best practice of Wales on climate change issues for pupils and school staff?
