The 3 Counties Energy Agency (3cea) has welcomed Government’s decision to approve a revised Climate Action Bill which includes specific targets on reducing carbon emissions over the next 30 years.
The Climate Action Bill commits to a carbon neutral status for Ireland by end 2050 and halving the amount of greenhouse gas emissions within the next 10 years. 3cea says it’s an opportunity to build on progress it has made in the region since it was established in 2002. The one-stop-shop is committed to driving social and behavioural change in the South-East towards a low carbon economy.
