IFA environment chair outlines 3 key requests for climate bill

June 9, 2021 4:26 pm The Irish Farmers’ Association (IFA) has three key requests as part of its stance on the Climate Action Bill that is currently making its way through the Oireachtas, according to IFA National Environment Committee chairman Paul O’Brien. Speaking to Agriland last week, on Wednesday (June 2), the chairman highlighted his organisation’s concerns and views in relation to the incoming bill and climate action targets. Highlighting that agriculture is “the only show in town” when it comes to the ability to sequester carbon, O’Brien outlined the IFA’s three key asks being sought at present. First off, he said the IFA is seeking for the recognition of carbon removals to be included in carbon budgets. Once data has been quantified and proven for the carbon sequestering ability of farms, this should be attributed back to agriculture, he stressed.
