Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
The Role of the Media and Communications in Actioning Climate Change: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Peter Woods:
It is very difficult to quantify the level. The discussion on climate has become more and more mainstream in programmes so the question is asked how that would affect the climate. We do not quantify or count that but that is asked on programmes such as Claire Byrne's programme and "Drivetime". "Morning Ireland" was broadcast from the COP summit. All of that feeds into, and increasingly feeds into, mainstream programmes.
