Monaghan Cllr calls for further public transport funding

Ireland needs to continue to decrease its greenhouse gas emissions in order to tackle climate change.

That's according to Carrickmacross - Castleblayney MD councillor, PJ O'Hanlon.

Ireland has an obligation to meet its EU Carbon targets by 2030.

The Fianna Fáil man explained s that solar panels, electric vehicles are a help, and that things are moving in the right direction.

However, Cllr. O'Hanlon believes that more funding is needed for public transport.
