Environment

As an island nation on the edge of the Atlantic ocean Ireland has a number of opportunties at hand to provide a better environment for our future generations. Instead our government continues to stick its head in the sand and maintain our reliance on imported fossil fuels. Given oil will be no longer available in the next 25-30 years we need to start the process of putting alternative energy plans in place today. Every generation should strive to leave a better environment inplace for the next generation to enjoy. On current course we will be the first generation in Irish history not to do so. Public debates are urgently needed on everything from how we handle our waste to how we ensure compliance with the Kyoto Accord. Let Livable Ireland know your views and ideas on each area of this wide reaching debate.
