COP27: Discussion

I might argue with Ms Curran on that point. The global dimension is very abstract for people. When we talk about the global dimension, they do not make the connection between, for example, the bus lane project or the new cycle network for their town or city. As far as they are concerned, they are two different conversations. I fear that if we talk about the global dimension all the time with respect to Ireland's responsibilities and targets, we are not going to get the buy-in we need. If Ms Curran feels differently, I am interested in hearing what she has to say.
