EPA's time-wasting website

    Having read the "Climate change may make summer 3 degrees hotter" article in today's Irish Times, I went to the epa website to get a copy of the report at 09h40 Irish time.

    In the epa.ie homepage they have "news" with a link on this. Click on it, and all you get is a press release! Useless. Where is the document please?

    Typical of comreg and others of their type - they appear to be after the "PR"! Wasting people's time is the most negative PR you can indulge in...

    Below the press release they have:

    Copies of Implications of the EU Climate Protection Target for Ireland are available at
    http://www.epa.ie/EnvironmentalResearch/EPAFundedResearchProjects/ReportsOutputs/

    probe naively thought that he would be brought to the report in question by clicking here.. He found just another list of URLs (the top ones don't work either).

    Having scrolled down to "Project Reports - Climate Change" - probe found no report title that seemed to match the latest report.

    He downloaded the first report under this heading, and it turned out to have been created on 17.12.2002!

    The EPA - another waste of money along with sei.ie!

    Will they have it fixed by the time you get around to reading this?
