Going strong.

Hope everybody is okay. This happened just after our protest for safer streets in Cabra. It underlines the need for safe cycling and walking infrastructure.

Email TDs and Senators to stop Darragh O'Brien's fossil fuel power grab I just emailed the TDs and Senators on the climate committee asking them to stop Darragh O'Briens fossil fuel power grab. Can you do the same?

Jerry McEvilly, @foeireland.bsky.social at PLS hearings:

“The choice before the committee is whether energy security is pursued in a way that strengthens climate law and public trust or undermines both”

Their report is due soon - urge them to protect the climate!

Government failing to consider how key policies are damaging climate, says UN expert Plans for LNG, Dublin Airport passenger cap and data-centre expansion ‘need scrutiny’

After 10 days fact-finding in Ireland, UN expert urges the Government to change its priorities..:

“Economic revenue must not come at the expense of protecting the environment and human rights...”

Ireland No. 1 in Europe - yet again. GHGs rose faster (+3.2%) in Ireland in Q3 2025 than ANYWHERE else in Europe.

#Climate action, my eye.

“Says Hogan: “If it is safe enough to eat, it should be okay for footpaths.””

We’d like to challenge Councillor Hogan to drink a glass of Glyphosphate then!

'The new tobacco': The cities banning fossil fuel adverts Cities across the world are clearing their billboards of flight ads, SUVs, cruise ships and petrol cars in an attempt to cut emissions.

Last year, we urged the Irish government to introduce a nationwide ban on fossil fuel advertising.

They chose not to act.

But across the globe, cities and countries are stepping up—reclaiming the narrative and taking bold action.

Ireland, meanwhile, remains a climate laggard.

A report to the Minister is being drafted this week. Follow the @uplift.ie link to let TDs and Senators on this committee know that the public do not support climate-wrecking LNG!

Dr Aideen O'Dochartaigh on behalf of @antaisce.bsky.social at last week's hearings:

I've spent the day in The High Court listening to Lissan Coal Company v An Bord Pleanála. This is a judicial review of ABP's decision to approve the BusConnects Blanchardstown to City Centre scheme.

Our action going totally viral on Twitter news right now!

We will not let the oil industry rest.

They are suffocating our planet. They are fuelling war. They are supporting genocide in Palestine.

HE IRISH TIMES Sir, - What connects floods, flying and the Minister for Climate, Energy, Environment and Transport, Darragh O'Brien? Flooding is increasing due to climate change. Flying is the single most detrimental activity in terms of climate effects. O'Brien wants to increase flying by removing the passenger cap at Dublin Airport. Is this what's called joined-up thinking? - Yours, etc, CELESTINE O'REILLY Foxrock.

Connect the dots. Flooding. Flying.

4 stories in the @irishtimes.com highlight the crazy approach to climate action by the government. 3 articles detailing the heavy financial & social cost of climate breakdown, and 1 where the govt celebrates increasing climate emissions for the airport by lifting the passenger cap. 🤯 #SpeirGorm

So-called Minister of "Climate" has just made a choice. That it's more important to increase flights, than to protect ourselves against flooding, homes uninsurable, people worldwide loosing their livelihoods, a tightrope with tipping points to world wide chaos. www.goloudplayer.com/podcasts/new...

Week 372 of protest as Govt demonstrates cognitive dissonance, trying to ram through a State LNG import terminal as the climate crisis deepens and Ireland is battered by rain and floods. Contact your TDs & tell them to #KeepIrelandLNGFree put a #MoratoriumOnDataCentres and #KeepThePassengerCap

The Irish Independent’s View: Acknowledging climate change is vital part of addressing problems like flooding Taoiseach Micheál Martin has been dipping his toes in to the response to flooding in parts of the country as a result of heavy rainfall since the start of the year.

Week 371 protesting for climate justice outside the Dáil. Meanwhile, Minister Darragh O’Brien is trying to ram through legislation to allow him to approve a state LNG terminal. Here’s an action you can take on this NOW!

A good opportunity to hear from the author of this great book: The Lie Of The Land

Musk row a negotiation that became a 'PR gift' - O'Leary Ryanair's spat with Elon Musk was a "public negotiation that turned into a huge PR gift", according to group CEO Michael O'Leary.

It is grossly negligent for a national broadcaster to report on Ryanair’s profit margins without once mentioning emissions, given it is one of Europe’s biggest CO₂ emitters.

This is not journalism. It is head in the sand reporting with a generous helping of free corporate PR.

Dublin City Council suspends use of X as State agencies leave amid Grok controversy Country’s largest local authority undertakes review of social media platform use as others sign out for good

Dublin City Council has suspended use of X following the Green Party emergency motion last week. It'll come to our Protocol Committee next week and myself and other Greens will be recommending leaving it completely.

Irresponsible!

A deeply unserious government

Delaying the 2026 Climate Action Plan is deeply concerning. Efforts are already way off-track & the CAP is the main tool for closing the delivery gap this decade. Saying we must wait for post-2030 carbon budgets is conceptually backwards - delay now makes future targets harder and more expensive.

I've signed this petition calling for the government to shut down X for producing & sharing sexual abuse images. Will you do the same? I've signed this petition calling for the government to stop X allowing their chatbot Grok to ‘digitally undress’ women and share sexualised and illegal photos of children. Will you sign too?
