Solidarity with climate activists
The INMO joined the youth- led and organised Global Climate Strike on Friday, Sep- tember 20. Students across the world took part in what has been described as the largest climate protest in history. Standing in solidarity with the young activists, the INMO took part in this action in Ire- land along with ICTU and many other Irish trade unions. In its pre-Budget submission to the government, the INMO said: “It is imperative that the government pushes forward on its Action Plan on Climate Change, including the transi- tion to a low carbon economy and investment research and development funding for alter- native energy sources.” However, it also stressed the need for a commission on just transition to “ensure real, valued
alternative jobs for sectors and communities depending on tradi- tional carbon-driven industries.” Pictured at the protest (right): are Ruairi Shelley and his daughter Lua Rose,with Caoimhe Kerins and her daughter Síofra
