Climate change
undermines the enjoyment of the full range of human rights – from the right to life, to food, to shelter and to health. It is an injustice that the people who have contributed least to the causes of the problem suffer the worst impacts of climate change,” added Mrs Robinson, who is chair of the Elders group of global leaders working for human rights.Speaking to the Guardian before the ceremony, she said her angry words were the result of seeing the impact on people’s lives.
Energy demand rose 2.3 per cent – its fastest rate since 2010 – and was met mainly by fossil fuels. That pushed global emissions to 33 billion tonnes, up 1.7 per cent from 2017.

‘We won’t solve climate change without carbon tax,’ Taoiseach saysLeo Varadkar emphatically rejected claims that the carbon tax would increase fourfold in the next budget. “There is absolutely no prospect of a carbon tax increase of that scale or anything remotely approaching it.” Don’t fall for this tax. Ireland is such a small nation, and without and large and unregulated industries its contribution to the worlds carbon footprint is negligible. Don’t get taxed to save the world 1/100000% and to make Leo look good. This is an excuse to tax people more. It’s the workers who are paying for everything will have to pay this as well.
