South Dublin County Council Draft Climate Adaptation and Mitigation Plan

REPLY:

Work on the SDCC Draft Climate Action Plan continues.

The current schedule for the plan is as follows:

• Scoping for SEA/AA
• Presented to the SPC in November
• Presented to the full council in December
• If the Draft Plan is adopted - Public engagement will be in late January 

A further development, as part of the general public engagement and as an initiative to raise Climate Change and Climate Action as a local issue there will be a "National Dialogue on Climate Action – Local Gatherings" across the country. There has already been one in Athlone and this continue to be rolled out across the country. The Local Authorities, the CARO offices and the EPA will work together to rollout these events, and seek input into Climate Action from local communities and elected members.
