Mr. Donnellan's presentation sets out very well the various ways of trying to achieve the targets we are aiming for, providing different scenarios, projected emissions and three mitigation pathways. I agree with his statement that there is no silver bullet. At the same time, some of the measures are common sense and would not take an awful lot to push forward. Is more incentivisation required to achieve those targets? Should we show more carrot than stick in our approach to this?
