Ireland has been ranked as the worst country in Europe on climate action.
It marks the second year in a row Ireland been named as the worst of the 28 EU Member States when it comes to tackling climate change.
The Climate Change Performance Index is produced by two European think-tanks.
It places Ireland 48th out of 56 countries - up one place from last year.
Sweden leads the rankings, followed by Morocco and Lithuania.
The report says Ireland's existing climate mitigation efforts will not enable us to achieve either its EU 2020 or 2030 targets.
