Ireland's Climate Change Advisory Council recommends reviewing motoring taxes and expanding school bus services to encourage electric car adoption and reduce carbon emissions.
Ireland's Climate Change Advisory Council (CCAC) urges a review of motoring-related taxes to encourage citizens to switch from petrol/diesel to electric cars. They also recommend expanding school bus services, maintaining 20% public transport fare reduction, and improving services to provide car alternatives. The council's request comes as transport surpasses the 2021-2025 "carbon budget" and as EV sales lag behind targets.
