English: Can I say to Delyth Jewell, who introduced this debate in the name of Siân Gwenllian, how much I welcome this? And it feels to me as if there is now a growing not just cross-party consensus, but a real momentum behind not just the climate change crisis, but the nature crisis and the biodiversity crisis as well. And that should be encouraging to the Minister, who spoke earlier on today at an event that Llyr and others attended on how we actually protect the very best in our marine environment, as well as sustainably exploit the marine environment as well. The Minister did speak very eloquently in her remarks at that debate, but I'm really, really pleased this early in the sixth Senedd that we have this gathering momentum around doing the right thing, following the evidence, sometimes making the hard and difficult decisions, and I see the Minister here, Lee Waters, has just joined us and he'll be very familiar with that from the announcements only a week ago on the roads review as well: following the evidence, following the data for climate change, for biodiversity. It also, of course, falls on the back of a motion that was laid on 15 June here in this place that was co-signed by Llyr and Janet and Jane Dodds as well, which in drawing reference to COP15 coming up - the UN Convention on Biological Diversity Conference - also called then on 'Welsh Government to support a successful outcome from COP15 by making clear its support for a global target to halt and begin to reverse biodiversity loss by 2030 and secure substantive recovery by 2050, and to commit to reflecting this in domestic law, incorporating targets for species and habitats.' And of course that is reflected very much in the motion in front of us today. But the scale of what we have to do has been known for quite some time and, in fact, Welsh Government has acknowledged it too. In the refresh that they did of the nature recovery action plan, in prefatory remarks there, it acknowledged that in the post 2020 framework for the CBD's strategic plan to 2050 'very few of the 2020 Aichi targets have been achieved and that biodiversity is still in decline.' It acknowledged that: 'The 2019 report on biodiversity and ecosystems from the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Servicesdescribed the loss of biodiversity as a threat of equal size to the climate emergency', which is enshrined within this motion here today. And, of course, it also flagged up the need to address the post-EU exit governance gap. And away from the political aspects of this, we know that there is that clear and pending risk of a governance gap here, as we have left the EU. This is not a political point; it's just a pragmatic reality point that we need to address, and it refers to the need to actually change the way in which we approach landscape management here, through sustainable farming as well, and we'll come to that during this Senedd. But it also pointed to some of the urgent short-term actions. It says we need to align the responses to the climate emergency and the biodiversity crisis. That's within this motion today. I absolutely support this. It says that we need to address the post-EU exit funding gap for agri-environment measures - the Government is getting on with that; we need to support that - and that we need to provide spatial direction for action on biodiversity. It's not enough anymore to do small piecemeal fixes or pilots and so on; we need to do this at scale at large spatial dimensions, to improve the condition of the protected sites network, terrestrially and marine as well, and explore new and sustainable funding mechanisms as well, and so on. So, we know we have to get on with this. I really welcome the wording within this about closing the environmental governance gap, about focusing on the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity in the autumn, about targets, because targets are important. There are always the dangers with targets that you pick the wrong targets and you have the negative consequences, but I think we are clever enough to get through that. I really do think that. There is a commitment from the Government to do it, and that legally binding requirement to reverse biodiversity loss through those targets is important. So, Minister, I think this debate is helpful - it genuinely is - and I look forward to the response that you bring forward, but I feel that there is a cross-party momentum now behind these sorts of changes, which is good to see. It shouldn't be seen as a threat to Government; it should be seen as a support to Government to do the right thing, follow the evidence, and sometimes take some really tough decisions as well.
Welsh: A gaf fi ddweud wrth Delyth Jewell, a gyflwynodd y ddadl hon yn enw Siân Gwenllian, gymaint rwy'n croesawu hyn? Ac mae'n teimlo, nid yn unig fel pe bai yna gonsensws trawsbleidiol yn tyfu erbyn hyn, ond bod momentwm go iawn y tu ôl i'r argyfwng newid hinsawdd, yr argyfwng natur a'r argyfwng bioamrywiaeth hefyd. A dylai hynny fod yn galonogol i'r Gweinidog, a siaradodd yn gynharach heddiw mewn digwyddiad a fynychwyd gan Llyr ac eraill ar y ffordd rydym yn diogelu'r gorau yn ein hamgylchedd morol, yn ogystal â manteisio'n gynaliadwy ar yr amgylchedd morol hefyd. Siaradodd y Gweinidog yn huawdl iawn yn ei sylwadau yn y ddadl honno, ond rwy'n falch iawn o'r ffaith bod gennym, mor gynnar yn y chweched Senedd, y momentwm cynyddol hwn i fod eisiau gwneud y peth iawn, dilyn y dystiolaeth, gan wneud y penderfyniadau caled ac anodd weithiau, a gwelaf fod y Gweinidog, Lee Waters, newydd ymuno â ni ac fe fydd yn gyfarwydd iawn â hynny o'r cyhoeddiadau wythnos yn ôl ar yr adolygiad ffyrdd hefyd: dilyn y dystiolaeth, dilyn y data newid hinsawdd, y data bioamrywiaeth. Wrth gwrs, mae hefyd yn dod yn sgil cynnig a gyflwynwyd yn y lle hwn ar 15 Mehefin ac a gydlofnodwyd gan Llyr a Janet a Jane Dodds, cynnig a gyfeiriai at y COP15 nesaf - Cynhadledd Confensiwn y Cenhedloedd Unedig ar Amrywiaeth Fiolegol - ac a alwai ar 'Lywodraeth Cymru i gefnogi canlyniad llwyddiannus yn nghynhadledd COP15 drwy egluro ei chefnogaeth i darged byd-eang ar gyfer atal a dechrau gwrthdroi'r broses o golli bioamrywiaeth erbyn 2030 a sicrhau adferiad sylweddol erbyn 2050, ac ymrwymo i adlewyrchu hyn mewn cyfraith ddomestig, gan ymgorffori targedau ar gyfer rhywogaethau a chynefinoedd.' Ac wrth gwrs, adlewyrchir hynny'n gryf iawn yn y cynnig sydd o'n blaenau heddiw. Ond mae maint yr hyn y mae'n rhaid inni ei wneud wedi bod yn hysbys ers cryn dipyn o amser ac mewn gwirionedd, mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ei gydnabod hefyd. Pan aethant ati i ddiweddaru'r cynllun gweithredu adfer natur, roedd yn cydnabod mewn sylwadau rhagarweiniol fod yn y fframwaith ôl-2020 ar gyfer cynllun strategol y Confensiwn ar Amrywiaeth Fiolegol hyd at 2050 'ychydig iawn o dargedau Aichi 2020 sydd wedi'u cyflawni a bod bioamrywiaeth yn dal i ddirywio.' Roedd yn cydnabod: 'Fe wnaeth adroddiad yr Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Servicesyn 2019 ddisgrifio colli bioamrywiaeth fel perygl cynddrwg â'r argyfwng hinsawdd', ac mae hynny wedi'i ymgorffori yn y cynnig hwn yma heddiw. Ac wrth gwrs, tynnodd sylw hefyd at yr angen i fynd i'r afael â'r bwlch llywodraethu ar ôl gadael yr UE. Ac ar wahân i'r agweddau gwleidyddol ar hyn, gwyddom fod risg amlwg o fwlch llywodraethu yn aros, wedi inni adael yr UE. Nid pwynt gwleidyddol yw hwn; mae'n bwynt realiti pragmatig y mae angen inni fynd i'r afael ag ef, ac mae'n cyfeirio at yr angen i newid y ffordd rydym yn ymdrin â rheoli tirwedd yma, drwy ffermio cynaliadwy hefyd, a byddwn yn dod at hynny yn ystod y Senedd hon. Ond cyfeiriodd hefyd at rai o'r camau gweithredu tymor byr sydd eu hangen ar frys. Mae'n dweud bod angen inni gydlynu'r ymatebion i'r argyfwng hinsawdd a'r argyfwng bioamrywiaeth. Mae hynny o fewn y cynnig hwn heddiw. Rwy'n llwyr gefnogi hyn. Mae'n dweud bod angen inni fynd i'r afael â'r bwlch cyllido ar ôl gadael yr UE ar gyfer mesurau amaeth-amgylcheddol - mae'r Llywodraeth yn bwrw ymlaen â hynny; mae angen inni gefnogi hynny - a bod angen inni ddarparu cyfeiriad gofodol ar gyfer gweithredu ar fioamrywiaeth. Nid yw cynnig atebion tameidiog bach neu gynlluniau peilot ac yn y blaen yn ddigon mwyach; mae angen inni wneud hyn ar raddfa fawr ac mewn meintiau gofodol mawr, er mwyn gwella cyflwr y rhwydwaith safleoedd gwarchodedig, ar y tir ac ar y môr yn ogystal, ac archwilio mecanweithiau ariannu newydd a chynaliadwy, ac yn y blaen. Felly, gwyddom fod yn rhaid inni fwrw ymlaen â hyn. Rwy'n croesawu'r geiriad yn fawr ynghylch cau'r bwlch llywodraethu amgylcheddol, ynghylch canolbwyntio ar Gynhadledd y Partïon i'r Confensiwn ar Amrywiaeth Fiolegol yn yr hydref, ynghylch targedau, oherwydd mae targedau'n bwysig. Mae peryglon bob amser gyda thargedau, eich bod yn dewis y targedau anghywir ac yn cael canlyniadau negyddol, ond credaf ein bod yn ddigon clyfar i oresgyn hynny. Rwy'n credu hynny o ddifrif. Mae ymrwymiad gan y Llywodraeth i'w wneud, ac mae'r gofyniad sy'n rhwymo mewn cyfraith i wrthdroi colli bioamrywiaeth drwy'r targedau hynny'n bwysig. Felly, Weinidog, credaf fod y ddadl hon yn ddefnyddiol - mae'n wirioneddol ddefnyddiol - ac edrychaf ymlaen at eich ymateb, ond teimlaf fod momentwm trawsbleidiol yn awr y tu ôl i'r mathau hyn o newidiadau, sy'n dda i'w weld. Ni ddylid ei ystyried yn fygythiad i'r Llywodraeth; dylid ei ystyried yn gymorth i'r Llywodraeth wneud y peth iawn, dilyn y dystiolaeth, a gwneud penderfyniadau anodd iawn weithiau hefyd.
