Climate Action Roadmap
In November 2021, the Government launched the Climate Action Plan, (CAP 21) which sets out defined targets for the reduction of carbon emissions. These targets were enshrined in primary legislation by the Climate Action and Low Carbon Development (Amendment) Act 2021, which commits Ireland to move to a climate resilient and climate neutral economy by 2050.
The CAP 21 committed that all public sector bodies will complete a Climate Action Roadmap for their own organisation. The Climate Action Roadmap is a document which communicates how each public body aims to meet or is achieving its 2030 carbon and energy efficiency targets.
The CRR, has used the template for small public body within the SEAI guidance as the basis for its roadmap.
