COP27: Statements (29 Nov 2022)

Ruairí Ó Murchú: We are talking about COP27. There are certain pieces we welcome in regard to loss and damage, which is the idea of compensation or reparation for those parts of the world that are already paying a huge price for the fact the world is on fire and for our failure as a global community to deal with issues relating to emissions. We all accept there has been an insufficient amount of movement,...

Ruairí Ó Murchú: Many have spoken about the difficulties surrounding COP27 and about what the people have not signed up for. We want to make whatever moves we can away from fossil fuels.

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (29 Nov 2022)
