#ClimateConversation

​

Department of the Environment Climate and Communications

The Department of the Environment Climate and Communications is inviting every member of the public to get involved in Ireland’s Climate Conversation about the journey to net zero emissions by 2050, with a 51% reduction by 2030.

​

The consultation takes the form of a survey and covers practical themes that affect our everyday lives, such as travel, shopping including reuse and recycling, food and food waste, home – energy and insulation, and local environment and climate action. 

​

The survey is open until May 18th  and can be found on the department’s website at  https://climateconversations.citizenspace.com/decc/climateactionplan2021 /  The survey is user friendly.  You can opt to respond to only themes that interest you or to all of the themes and you can say as much or as little as you like. One especially useful feature is that you can complete one or more sections, save them, and return later.

​

​

Cyclist.ie will be responding to the consultation on the travel theme as you would expect.  We will be supporting all measures that will make it easier for people to choose to make some of their journeys by active means. We will post our submission here.  We urge everyone to respond to the consultation and to make your voice count!
