Who we are

We are a group of individuals concerned about global warming, living in Nenagh, Co Tipperary and surrounding areas. We believe that all of us in Ireland and other advanced societies must urgently reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in order to avoid catastrophic global warming of more than 2degC. Our aims are: 1st - To support each other in our efforts to reduce our own household’s carbon emissions, and 2nd - to promote in Nenagh and surrounding communities the changes in lifestyle necessary for all of us to flourish in a low-carbon future

Kathy Sinnott - Responses to European election questions

1. Do you agree that the world must urgently reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases to prevent catastrophic global warming?
YES AND ALSO OTHER POLLUTANTS AND PARTICULATES.

2. Do you support the proposal that the EU should promise aggressive cuts in European emissions in order to achieve international agreement to measures to hold global warming below 2degC at the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in December 2009?
I VOTED FOR THE 2% LIMIT IN THE CLIMATE CHANGE COMMITTEE OF WHICH I WAS A MEMBER AND IN THE FULL PLENARY VOTE.

3. What will you seek to do to encourage transition to low-carbon lifestyles and economies in Ireland and Europe?
MY WORK INCLUDES FOSTERING BIOFUEL INITIATIVES, CREATING AWARENESS ABOUT BIOCHAR AND OTHER WAYS OF ENHANCING CARBON EMMISSION ABSORBTION, INVESTIGATING WAYS OF REDUCING AGRICULTURAL EMMISIONS AND WORKING ON MANY REPORTS AND AMENDMENTS TO HELP US REDUCE EMISSIONS. i HAVE ALSO PUBLISHED A COUPLE OF ARTICLES ON THE SUBJECT.
