The Economy about to collapse, food shortages on the way, powergrid blackouts, borderline hyper inflation, skyhigh tax for inaccessible services, agricultural sector on life support and about to sink. Would ya ever fuck away off with your carbon tax bs...

Aw would ye just stop most people couldn’t give a shit about climate change. Stop shoving this agenda down our throats.

You already made electricity and heating fuels the most expensive they have ever been that citizens of this country may not have power this winter while we contribute 0.045% globally per annum respectfully. What more could they possibly do

Similar to covid we have to bend the curve....

Zero carbon emissions will lead to economic collapse it is all a scam climate has being changing for centuries carbon emissions have little to no effect on climate change

Felt in cold homes for sure...get practical or give it up.

In this case, I agree with him.

Committed to destroying our economy to virtue signal to the EU

Our carbon emissions are a fart compared to China and India

The impact of being held prisoner for the last two years will be the impact they need to worry about.

Bit fucking late.

Especially those whose homes are falling down around them. They'll definitely feel climate change.

It not the impact of climate change he should be talking about, but the impact and effectiveness of proposed counter measures?

Total bollocks..taxing fuel while buying in German peat..

So anti vax content banned and ads by anti climate change banned, how about michael martin for denying Bank Bailout

Poor people, people on fixed incomes, hard pressed low income families are the Only people that will hurt with universal carbon tax's. Its so regressive and SF will have a field day once the bills come through the letter box and briquettes need to be paid for.

Not another we're in this together speech

The climate hysteria dare I even say it is arguably even more one sided in how its reported than Covid. Most of it is not even remotely based in science either. Nobody denies that in certain areas we can do better but the media wants people to think their going to die in 10 years

The funny thing about it is that the people of Ireland ARE trying to do something about it,but facing barricades by Government. Thousands of acres of bogs here prime for rehabilitation,rewetting & just transition but the Government aren't preventing the pumping or habitat removal

Joined up how fg ff greens wouldn't even talk to shinners before election 😂😂

The same lad who wanted to increase his carbon footprint by flying to Washington for paddy’s day when he wasn’t even invited..🤔🤔

“The science is not settled” Irish climate scientist Prof. Ray Bates speaks out:

One-My many QUESTIONS-Answers my questions innocent need understand LUKE 10-18-I saw SATAN fall like lightning from heaven Energy comes through in WAVES QUESTION-He shall rise as a ? year 2027 Different LEVELS to be reached before millions of innocent souls become IT'S SLAVES

'Climate change' is a bullshit non-issue for middle class fools.

Well it will be felt in our pockets as we pay higher prices, but him and all the rest are millionaires so they wont feel it.

No the impact of government policy will be felt by everyone on the island. We're all well aware of that.

When Michael D Higgins visited VATICAN 2018-Presented ANTI POPE FRANCIS JESUIT PRIEST WITH CLIMATE BELL-BELL WAS TO SIGNIFY PEOPLE IRELAND READY FOR CHANGE-WEATHER MODIFICATION CREATED BEAST FROM EAST COLD SNAP THAT YEAR-REAL BEAST PREPARING TO RISE-U DON'T UNDERSTAND

PEOPLE ARE THE CLIMATE CHANGE- CONTROL THE WEATHER- CONTROL THE LIVES OF THOSE EASY RE-ARRANGE- NEW WORLD IS SET TO BECOME A LOT MORE STRANGE- You are of a PAGAN VALUES THEREFORE NO TRUTH OCCUPIES YOUR ONE HIVE MIND- FALSE LIGHT KEEPS YOU SPIRITUALLY BLIND-

Perhaps. But One things for sure, the punitive measures they will be put in place to tackle this crap will only be felt by us peasants I’ll bet those big data centres won’t pay a penny more due to corrupt green washing

He can't even run a joined up government,Fianna failure and the West Brit party

The wel heeled like him with their massive salaries and gold plated pensions won't feel the cold or hunger. They introduce these things knowing full well they are immune.

He really does like talking Bullshit. Well I suppose this is what his time in office will be remembered for

Tell him to plant cannabis, it'll help.

Poll shows high degree of public resistance to many potential climate action measuresWidespread public concern over climate change does not seem to translate into enthusiasm for any individual action to combat it There was never any possibility people were going to vote for lower standards of living. Enjoy what time is left and spend your Euros. They'll never be worth as much again. Individual action seems to translate a lot to paying more tax bc ppl can’t afford to convert from gas, buy electric cars or install solar. If govt wanted to us to do these things they’d make transition cost significantly lower but it’s like cigarette tax, they want the revenue The focus has to on the corporation’s that emit the vast bulk of greenhouse gases. Government policy must engender collective action by concerted societal engagement.
