THREAD: Last night Sinn Féin published our alternative report on tackling climate change in a progressive manner that works
Climate change is the defining challenge of our time

The current carbon tax hasn’t reduced emissions. It hasn’t worked. The proposals from the other parties will impact harder on ordinary working people and families. Sinn Féin will not support such punitive measures.
Our proposals include; investing in public transport, making homes more energy efficient, measures to reduce emissions by corporations, creating more renewable energy and more.
Increasing taxes does not help low and middle income families to change to modern fuel efficient cars or to upgrade their homes.

It just makes it harder for them to meet their bills.
We have to enable people to change their behaviour to reduce their carbon footprint.

A fair, green alternative is possible.
