Climate delay is a form of climate denial. The Irish Times needs to do better. This is a click bate headline of anti climate action nonsense from a niche group of Engineers - membership 180. Whereas Engineers Ireland has 30,000 members. This was an editorial voice to run this.

This solar farm will be far cheaper and quicker to build than its nuclear plant neighbor was. Then it will be far lower in cost to the consumer or business user.
