Climate change discussions dominated proceedings in Monday’s first full meeting of the new term of Clare County Council, but motions to declare a climate crisis were deferred to allow the Council prepare a new Climate Change Strategy.
The matter will return to the agenda in September, when it’s expected the emergency will be declared. Katie Duson and Kate Harty (both of Colaiste Mhuire in Ennis) addressed the Council on foot of a series of climate action strikes held by students in Ennis, and elsewhere in Clare. They joined Gavin in the studio and shared what they have done to make their schools and lives more economical.
