Monaghan County Council is Committed to Leading on Climate Action
Monaghan County Council will this week share information about our climate actions, plans and ambitions across our social media and other platforms.
Climate change is the defining issue of our time, and we want to make sure the public can be confident that their council is taking action and leading in the response.
A new report published this week shows that Monaghan County Council and all local authorities have been for some time undertaking a vast range of actions to tackle climate change and to promote climate action within our communities.
Monaghan County Council has been proactive in many areas including energy efficiency, sustainable transport development, flood risk management, water conservation, waste management, nature-based solutions and public engagement.
In addition, we have been at the forefront in responding to the extreme weather events that are the effect of climate change and have developed a Climate Adaptation strategy to ensure we build our resilience and preparedness.

Monaghan County Council is in the process of signing Climate Action Charter setting some of our ambition for the future. See: Ministers Bruton & Canney Introduce Climate Action Charter for All Local Authorities
