Richard Boyd Barrett (PBP), Dún Laoghaire

I note the Taoiseach mentioned climate change and security. I wonder did he raise the point that the single biggest institutional emitter of CO2 emissions in the world is the United States military. Did he raise the point that major military powers are not even required to reveal their CO2 emissions? We count everybody else's emissions but we do not count the US military's emissions.
