Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Ireland's Climate Change Assessment Report: Discussion

Dr. Agnieszka Stefaniec:

I will add an example for Deputy Kenny about the initial reflection of non-believers in climate change. Even the people who do not believe in climate change see the changes that are happening around them. For example, with place making, how places change and how it feels pleasant to walk in their neighbourhoods, they will support climate action because it works for them. That echoes what Dr. Moriarty said. We found in Volume 4 that most of the actions related to addressing climate change work well for people so when we highlight this other people will also be on board. That is my understanding.
