Forgotten Climate

The Irish Government's Autumn 2010 legislation programme, which was published yesterday, has failed to include a Climate Bill.

The Government committed itself last December to passing a climate law in 2010 but with only three months of the year remaining, that is looking increasingly doubtful. Yesterday was yet another missed deadline.

As previously mentioned, nearly half of all sitting TDs recently signed up to the Stop Climate Chaos climate commitment which secured their support for the passing of a strong climate bill.

It's time the Irish Government listens to the will of its people and their representatives.
