Are you curious how the climate policies of political party manifestos stack up ahead of 🇮🇪 #ge24 next week?

❌ The three major parties - Fianna Fáil, Sinn Fein and Fine Gael all failed our assessment
✅ the Labour Party came out on top

Good news! We have to celebrate progress, and reflect on how far we’ve come (while still pushing for faster, transformative change).

My first repost here. Climate has slipped down the agenda since the last election. As a parent two young kids, one of whom has complex disabilities, and as a renter in Dublin, I fully get the challenges a lot of us are facing.
But now is not the time to be complacent about climate action.
Where’s #ClimateChange in the #GE24 campaign?

Immediate, sustained action is needed to cut emissions and prepare 🇮🇪 for more extreme weather.

The lifetime of the next government will be critical, so where’s the debate?
