Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Third Report of the Citizens' Assembly: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 pm

Professor Sonia Seneviratne:

The Chairman asked whether the 80% target was sufficient and the answer is "No". If we want to achieve 1.5° Celsius, the report suggests we would need zero emissions by 2050. However, this is a long-term goal, so it is probably better to focus first on 2030.
