The pace of lowering emissions is too slow to meet upcoming targets, according to a new report.
Modern diesel and petrol cars have far lower CO2 emissions than they did a decade ago.

It comes as an SEAI report found that, despite energy-related emissions in Ireland's carbon budget falling annually by 1.9%, the pace is still too slow for set emissions targets.
But the Portlaoise man says, we are eliminating harmful emissions:
