Greenhouse emissions fell 2% last year but Ireland is still way off reaching its climate targets
All sectors included in the EPA’s calculation saw reductions, except for the heating of homes and other buildings.
In total, 54 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (Mt CO2eq) were emitted in Ireland last year.
Emissions from energy industries decreased by 8.9%, Agriculture by 1.7%, transport by 1.2% and industrial emissions fell by 4.6%.
The EPA warned that the rate of reduction still needs to increase if Ireland is to reach its climate targets.
