The poor state of the physical environment could undermine food security and erode wild spaces
The latest assessment by the Environmental Protection Agency of the state of the Irish environment is the most concerning since its first iteration some 30 years ago. A worsening environment facilitated by insufficiently robust policies and poor implementation imperils Irish prosperity. This will be compounded by pressures from a worsening climate crisis, a growing economy and a rising population.
Its core message is that transformation of Ireland’s energy, food and transport system is required. This must be reinforced by the putting in place of critical infrastructure that not only ensures continuing economic development but comes with rigorous environmental guardrails. The report finds that “a continued lack of delivery” of large-scale practical actions to decarbonise all sectors will see an exceedance of Ireland’s first two carbon budgets”. Ultimately, that will lead to multibillion euro penalties and restricted opportunities to respond; what will be feasible will come with far greater cost.
