During the episode we dig into Irelandโ€™s hottest summer on record, and how many of us underestimate just how many people do want to see climate action.

As always, the episode is available to listen to our the usual platforms.

In this article for @thebookseller.com, I look at how our approach to discussing the #ClimateCrisis has had to evolve, as we search for the widest range of entertaining ways to convince people to act on this threat to our civilization.

๐ŸŒ The Patient Earth is Sick. This affects us all โ€” but we have the cure. Climate action is our greatest opportunity for health.

We have come together as doctors from across the Nordic countries to call for urgent action.

Many studies have come to the same conclusion, for many countries: the impacts of our food choices are underestimated by most people.

A sobering end to the episode and season, noting the ongoing genocide in Gaza against our climate breakdown.

Everyone on #spรฉirgorm should be listening to the Climate Alarm and should be emailing and calling their TDs, ensuring they are doing more than they are now to prevent any more loss of life.

Another solid episode of this excellent podcast. If there's one issue I'd take issue with it, it's that they're very down on county councils, many of which ARE taking concrete action on climate change. I've worked with a couple of them and they're very much on the front line. 1/3

Did they make it clear though... or is it a general failure from our leaders/media to communicate the admittedly large complexities but nevertheless urgency of the climate crisis we are facing that has led to their re-election... or is it all of the above... asking for a friend!

Alas, the last news round up episode of this season of The Climate Alarm Clock is upon us once more!

Before recording we didn't think we'd have much to say but it turns out we were very wrong... Tune in to give it a listen: linktr.ee/ClimateAlarmClock

Shares, thoughts and feedback all welcome!

Ronan, hope your trip went well and maybe we helped you sleep along the way! Lots of issues with HVO but Rail & Sail is still much lower emissions way to travel. And you get to listen to loads of podcasts!!! Let us know how you got on and thanks for listening!
