The Dundrum Climate Vigil group has just celebrated one year of climate action. Every Friday morning, rain or shine, the group has taken a stand for the planet on Main Street, engaging with local people and encouraging them to take action in their own lives and to ‘vote for climate action’ at every opportunity.
Now meeting on Zoom, the group is keenly watching developments in government formation, and arguing for an ambitious climate agenda and a ‘just transition’ – involving all sectors of the population and economy – as the way forward for national recovery from the pandemic. They know that such an agenda for change is the only way to ensure the health and wellbeing of the Irish people for the long term.
