Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Joint Meeting with Joint Committee on Environment and Climate Action
Exploring Technologies and Opportunities to Reduce Emissions in the Agriculture Sector: Discussion

Mr. Desmond Savage:

I am just monitoring what I can see. We are all custodians of the land of the planet. We are passing it on to the next generation. I am just trying to do my bit and get things going in the right direction. I have seen that when this is done right from a manufacturing point of view, benefits in the millions of euro can be seen. Ireland is very good at it. We have some of the best quality records and some of the best efficiencies in manufacturing in the world. I went to University of Limerick and that is what I was taught there in the 1990s. It was Deming, I think, in the 1960s, who said that if you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it. Just because that was said in the 1960s does not mean it is wrong today. It stands the test of time.
