Thanks Chris and Jim for the podcast. To focus on the UN Climate Change report and the politicisation of climate change. It's interesting to see that the UK's Office of Budget responsibiloty have completed an assessment of the costs for UK to manage the climate change challenge (https://obr.uk/box/the-uk-governments-climate-change-risk-assessment/) with forecasted costs and assumptions which the OBR described as "significant but manageable". This sort of report helps to have a constructive discussion on the challenge ahead. Perhaps the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council is planning a similar analysis ? Cheers Richie
