Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Carbon Budgets: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Brian Rushe:
The Deputy is quite right and the figures indicate that if food waste were a country, it would be the third-largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world. This goes back to Mr. Buckley's point about the value people put on food, and perhaps if food was valued a bit more by people, less would be wasted. The Deputy asked a question about where we are on the targets.
