The Committee believes that climate change is and will continue to be one of the most important challenges facing the EU and the world. Thjs report examines what the the EU is doing about climate change, what policies are in place and how they are working. Chapters cover the international context for EU policy, the EU emissions trading scheme, transport, other policy areas (including energy efficiency, renewable energy policy, nuclear energy, waste and agriculture), and the EU and the international community. The EU adopted a European Climate Change Programme, a comprehensive and relevant set of measures, but progress has been mixed. The report also finds that most member countries have not made significant progress towards their Kyoto targets for greenhouse gas reduction. It recommends that the EU emissions trading scheme be endorsed by the G8 as a model to be followed throughout the world. The lack of action to deal with the effects of aviation on climate change is seen as a major problem that needs to be addressed internationally.

The Irish Yearbook of International Law is intended to stimulate further research into Ireland's practice in international affairs and foreign policy, filling a gap in existing legal scholarship and assisting in the dissemination of Irish thinking and practice on matters of international law. On an annual basis, the Yearbook presents peer-reviewed academic articles and book reviews on general issues of international law. Designated correspondents provide reports on international law developments in Ireland, Irish practice in international fora and the European Union, and the practice of joint North-South implementation bodies in Ireland. In addition, the Yearbook reproduces documents that reflect Irish practice on contemporary issues of international law. Publication of the Irish Yearbook of International Law makes Irish practice and opinio juris more readily available to Governments, academics and international bodies when determining the content of international law. In providing a forum for the documentation and analysis of North-South relations the Yearbook also make an important contribution to post-conflict and transitional justice studies internationally. As a matter of editorial policy, the Yearbook seeks to promote a multilateral approach to international affairs, reflecting and reinforcing Ireland's long-standing commitment to multilateralism as a core element of foreign policy.
