Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

COP28: Discussion

Ms Karol Balfe:

When looking at fossil fuel lobbyists or PR lobbyists, it is really important not to forget who is funding the industries and the level of funding. There is $3.2 trillion from the major international banks funding fossil fuels, so when we look at advertising, we also need to look at the root sources of where the money is coming from.
