Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I said to the Deputy that we need an inclusive process here, involving and including climate change as well. Yesterday's report by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC, warned that it is now or never to avoid climate catastrophe. That is what the panel said. It warned that humanity has less than three years to halt the rise of planet-warming carbon emissions. The UN Secretary-General, Mr. António Guterres, called out doublespeak on climate. He said that some governments and business leaders were saying one thing but doing another. He said, "Simply put, they are lying. And the results will be catastrophic." That is the view of a number of people in this House, including the Sinn Féin Party. They doublespeak on climate.
