Climate Action Week is coming to Central Library, Letterkenny on Friday 17th October at 11.00am

Climate Action Week is coming to Central Library, Letterkenny on Friday 17th October at 11.00am. Europe Direct Letterkenny and Donegal County Council are delighted to be partnering with Michelle Murphy from The Just Transition Commission for a workshop on the European Commission’s First Report on Climate Change.

Michelle will also give an overview of the recommendations from the Introductory Report of the Just Transition Commission. The first report of Ireland’s Just Transition Commission urges the Government to develop a bold and forward-looking strategy that places just transition at the heart of national climate action. 

Wopke Hoekstra, European Commissioner for Climate, Net Zero and Clean Growth commented that, “The science is clear – we must accelerate climate action and cut global emissions this decade. People are suffering the devastating and far-reaching impacts of climate change, with increasingly severe flooding”.
