Irish Times, Dec. 10 2015 It was the professional highlight of my life to attend the final days of the 21st United Nations' Conference of Parties on behalf of Friends of the Earth Ireland. While the Paris Climate Agreement may not have the teeth or ambition that most of us would like, nonetheless it was amazing to witness such a historic occasion and I'm hopeful that the agreement now gives people a tool to hold our governments accountable for climate action.
