What do you think of this?
Calls have been made for a prohibition on the sale, distribution and burning of smoky coal all across Carlow.
Cllr Ken Murnane has tabled a motion ahead of the full meeting of Carlow County Council on Monday.
It states: "That Carlow County Council calls on the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and the Environment to publish as a matter of urgency the cross-governmental Clean Air Strategy and introduce a prohibition on the sale, distribution and burning of smoky coal all across County Carlow and the remaining 25 counties."
Currently, there is a smoky coal ban in Carlow but only in certain parts.
