Top climate panel tells government how to weather energy crisis

Ministers, including Climate Minister Eamon Ryan, outlining the sectoral emissions targets in July Image: Sam Boal/Rollingnews.ie Ministers, including Climate Minister Eamon Ryan, outlining the sectoral emissions targets in July Image: Sam Boal/Rollingnews.ie IRELAND’S TOP EXPERT group on climate change has told the government the steps it should take to protect the public from the energy crisis while cutting down our dependency on harmful fossil fuels.

It has been nearly a year since the Council published its proposed carbon budgets, the first of their kind, to guide Ireland’s emissions reductions up to 2035. As we approach what will be one of the most challenging winters in a generation, it is imperative that we support communities by protecting the most vulnerable in society, particularly those in receipt of the winter fuel allowance and those living in the worst performing buildings.” Advertisement

It is asking for an accelerated rollout of home energy upgrades such as attic insulation, draught-proofing, regular boiler servicing, and heating controls, as well as a simplification of the paperwork required to access relevant grants. On the supply side, developing renewable energy “must be considered as being in the overriding public interest”, the Council said, calling on the government to increase targets for onshore wind and solar energy.In July, the government announced how the greenhouse gas emissions allowed under the carbon budgets would be shared among sectors and how far each would be required to reduce its emissions.

In its report, the Council said that the announcement of the sectoral targets was a “welcome milestone” but detailed how it fell short of important markers. The Climate Action Plan 2023 due to be published later this year will need to set out precise actions and steps to stay within the carbon budgets, according to the report.

Expert's 🤣

Also, drop the Pronouns

Experts on bank bail outs. Experts on vaccines. Experts on Lockdowns. Experts on energy. Experts.

Top expert group

Why is a climate panel advising on energy when it should be an energy panel? What kind of bollox is this exactly?

Ireland top experts

Who is this top expert?

Nuclear?

Next week, how to nail jelly to the ceiling

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for accepting my request. I am professional web designer and developer. I have been working in this sector for the last 3 years. If you need any kind of web design & development related service

Anything about not bringing 100,000s of people from low carbon footprint parts of the world to this part of the world? No. Of course not lol.

Won't work you can't close off reliable sources of energy for unreliable so quickly. The virtue signalling has brought about a man made crisis

Christmas is cancelled, hike the energy prices higher and ban everything

Drill our own resources keep it pubic

Who are these 'experts' and who owns them?

65% wind power generated yesterday but days before it was only 6%. Like it or not we will require gas as a backup source of power generation. We have a 90 day strategic oil reserve but no gas reserve. We import fracked gas & nuclear power from UK & soon France.

Nuclear powerstations please!

I said it before, if ever a photo caption said it all, it's this 1, the 2 on the left not happy the 2 on the right not happy & all looking utterly bewildered pippa_hackett actually looks lost.Pretty much like the rest of us looking on this shambles fiannafailparty FineGael

laurenanna_1 These people are living in an alternate universe

laurenanna_1 1️⃣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙈🙈🙈🙈Ireland hasn’t a expert on anything (except corruption) and most definitely not on anything to do with the UNIVERSE! The criminal corruption of governments and arrogance of thick people to think they can effect the climate that has been changing trillions years

laurenanna_1 It's a feckin cycle we can't change anything about it

laurenanna_1 Forget about all this climate change nonsense and let us get on with our lives without listening to all this BS about non existent climate change!

laurenanna_1 “Top expert group has told the government”, we’ve heard that one before and it didn’t end well

laurenanna_1 “IRELAND’S TOP EXPERT group on climate change ……..”. Hahahaaaaaaa!!

laurenanna_1 I believe they were heard to say that culling older people was the best idea to come from Eamonn Ryan

laurenanna_1 Dangerous deranged lunatics.

laurenanna_1 'Fossil' fuels are only harmful if they are not used. More people will suffer if we cut back on them without an adequate replacement.

laurenanna_1 Experts 😂😂😂😂😂😂

laurenanna_1 Time to get the turf in for the winter

laurenanna_1 No target will be reached because govt have not provided affordable alternatives for people and families cannot afford to take out loans to switch from fossil fuels and govt know this,public also know alternatives will be much more expensive bill to pay and electricity is example

laurenanna_1 A complete joke

laurenanna_1 Turn down the heat by a few degrees in all Govt buildings

laurenanna_1 Make all public transport free?

laurenanna_1 Who are these fcuking top experts. Another bunch of useless clowns

laurenanna_1

laurenanna_1

laurenanna_1 How much carbon emissions did this quango emit in going to meetings, waffling and writing reports - hopefully on recycled paper (can TheGreenParty confirm?). All hot air and lots of future planning but nothing about the elderly person who can’t heat their house next month.

laurenanna_1 😂😂😂😂🤡🤡💩💩

laurenanna_1 Who is Irelands 'Top Expert Group '...Are they Independant as a 'Top Expert Group' or just another FFFG/G..Ind Group
