2010年引入的爱尔兰碳税在减少排放量方面效果参差不齐。 Ireland's carbon tax, introduced in 2010, sees mixed effectiveness in cutting emissions.

2010年为遏制碳排放而引入的爱尔兰碳税因没有显著减少排放量而遭到批评。 Ireland's carbon tax, introduced in 2010 to curb carbon emissions, has faced criticism for not significantly reducing emissions. 虽然由于COVID-19的限制,2019年的排放量下降了3%,2020年下降了3.6%,但由于煤炭和石油使用增加,2021年的排放量上升了4.5%。 While emissions fell 3% in 2019 and 3.6% in 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions, they rose 4.5% in 2021 due to increased coal and oil use. 2022年,由于燃料价格上涨和可再生能源使用增加,排放量下降了1.9%。 In 2022, emissions dropped 1.9% due to higher fuel prices and more renewable energy use. 税收的有效性受到辩论,但它仍是爱尔兰向绿色经济过渡的一个关键部分。 The tax's effectiveness is debated, but it remains a key part of Ireland's green economy transition.
