Making the Transition to a Low Carbon Western Region – Where are we now?
We have recently updated data from our 2020 report Making the Transition to a Low Carbon Society in the Western Region: Key Issues for Rural Dwellers. In doing this we focused on county data for Western Region counties (Clare, Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo) with an emphasis on some of the areas to be addressed in reducing emissions associated with households in rural areas
Our focus is on the three areas of energy use by rural dwellers which can have significant climate implications:
- Homes and Heating
- Transport and Travel
- Electricity
We explored sources and datasets which were not available in 2020 that give more and better answers to ‘Where we are now?’ in understanding the patterns in these energy emitting areas for rural dwellers in the Western Region. Our infographics show key data for each county and the indicators used in our county infographics are discussed in more detail in WDC Insights Briefing.
Where data is available, we compare across Western Region counties, the Western Region itself and the rest of the State (i.e. counties other than those in the Western Region).
This work gives us a snapshot of where we are in relation to making the low carbon transition in Western Region counties and provides more insight into the challenges of the low carbon transition for rural dwellers as well as letting us see where we are doing well.
On this page you can download infographics (in English and Irish) for each county and for the Western Region as a whole, along with a Briefing looking at the data used in the infographics
