The actions which drive Ireland's whole-of-Government approach to reducing its emissions are set out in the 2024 Climate Action Plan. The Department of Health has no specific emission reduction targets. However, it supports public sector efforts associated with achieving a reduction of 51% in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, and of achieving a 50% improvement in energy efficiency over that timeframe.
