Press Release - Friends of the Irish Environment 28th June 2019 UN Expert Report predicts ‘Climate apartheid’ The Report demonstrates that ‘while people in poverty are responsible for just a fraction of global emissions, they will bear the brunt of climate change, and have the least capacity to protect themselves. We risk a ‘climate apartheid’ scenario where the wealthy pay to escape overheating, hunger, and conflict while the rest of the world is left to suffer.’ |

Jump To Comment: 1Meanwhile the EU and FG green light a mercosur deal which will mean
99,000 tons of brazilian beef full of angel dust and hormones and fed on GMO soy will travel 6000 food miles
to be consumed in Europe.
Rain forest will presumably be cut down for these cows
under the rule of Jair Bolsonaro who doesn't give a shit about such things
as pollution, the environment, rain forests etc.
Meanwhile paddy eejit is lumbered with carbon taxes on the poorest in society
to "save the climate" under threat of EU fines.
What a load of hypocrisy this EU climate agenda all is.
When it comes to selling more German cars and corporate pharmaceuticals
then it's a different set of rules for these folks of course
And the distorting forces of EU fines mean countries are incentivised into
killing indigenous industries and pushing the production of those things offshore
where it does far more "climate damage" in order to avoid crippling EU fines.
Fuck the EU. Vote Irexit!!
