Episode 17
In this episode of Ibec Voices we are taking you inside Aras an Uachtarain, the residence of the President of Ireland, to hear a very special address delivered by Ibec CEO, Danny McCoy.
As President of the Statistical & Social Inquiry Society of Ireland, Danny McCoy delivered the keynote address to mark 175 years of SSISI. Entitled “Sustainable Development: ‘Still’ The Opportunity for Irish Economic Policymakers”, his address covers topical matters including:
- The challenge of reducing emissions by 50 percent in this decade;
- The difficulties in holding a purely ecocentric or technocentric view of the world;
- The manner in which we must deal with the environmental agenda.
The paper can be read in full here, and Danny McCoy’s Presidential Address can be watched here.
