Climate Change Policy
Dail Éireann — 2022-10-25
============================================================

Charlie McConalogue (FF), Donegal

The Deputy's point is well made. It is important that we have balance in the steps we are taking. We must bring down our emissions and reduce our carbon footprint because we have to deal with the climate challenges. Alongside that, we must ensure food security because there are challenges in respect of food production. Food is becoming more difficult to produce in many parts of the world, specifically as a result of the climate issue. We must consider both of those aspects when it comes to any proposals we are considering.
