What is Government really doing about climate change?  What policy changes could do the most good?  Ireland is way off target when it comes to reducing our carbon emissions to sustainable levels and we are almost certainly going to miss our Europe 2020 and 2030 targets if we continue along this trajectory.  In the Sustainability edition of our National Social Monitor, we assess whether current policy on sustainability encompasses the three pillars of environment, society and economy and make proposals on how to transition towards a sustainable future.
