Green Party Slams Government Climate Rollback | Belfast News

Green Party leader Roderic OGorman is sounding the alarm, accusing the government of actively rolling back climate policies his party championed — citing record-breaking heat and stalled climate plans as evidence. He insists the carbon tax isn’t driving up energy prices, blaming instead Ireland’s dependence on costly imported fuels, and notes tax revenue is earmarked for green initiatives. Deputy Leader Hazel Chu is pushing for a pause on new data centers, arguing they’re worsening energy costs at a time when families are struggling. Senator Malcolm Noonan criticizes rising public transport fares as counterproductive during the cost-of-living crisis, while chair Janet Horner warns supporters to protest Donald Trump’s upcoming visit, calling out his history on women’s rights, global aid, and energy costs — urging accountability from world leaders.
