Minister for Climate Darragh O’Brien: we can grow Dublin Airport ‘sustainably’ from 36m to 60m passengers.
Mary Wilson: What about climate, have you run the numbers on emissions?
Minister: No question there will be an increase, SAF exists, planes more technologically advanced now…

This Government is apparently willing to sacrifice a livable future for short term profit. In just the last 3 decades, Ireland's aviation emissions have grown by 500% & this Government seems hell-bent on increasing them more. We must contact our TDs & Senators & tell them to keep the passenger cap!

International day to BAN NIGHT FLIGHTS at airports. Families no longer having a peaceful home... Communities not getting enough rest... Children not being able to get enought sleep... Even MORE harmful aviation pollution... should be #RedLinesForAirports

Ban night flights, stop airport expansions.
We stand with communities in Ireland impacted by harmful night flights. Kids need adequate rest for their well-being.
They also need urgent climate action from aviation, to help protect their futures.🌎

Just finished reading @thinkorswim.bsky.social 's book "The Lie of The Land" - a must-read for anyone in Ireland who cares about doing what needs doing to try to ensure a habitable planet for ourselves & future generations. Also a valuable reference for any activist - which we all need to be now.

Truly absurd!

Image description: A NHNA post with a black background. The white text reads: "STOP LNG - No new fossil fuel infrastructure in a climate crisis. JUST TRANSITION - Rapidly transforming our energy system in a fair and equitable way. RENEWABLES Widescale development of domestic renewable energy sources. For more information, visit Ingfree.ie." There is a traffic light graphic on the left side of the post: the NHNA logo is on the red light, three white dots are on the yellow light, and a checkmark is on the green light.

NHNA priorities include

🔴 Stopping new fossil fuel infrastructure
🟡 Advocating for a just and fair transition
🟢 Supporting widespread development of indigenous renewable energy

Members of Not Here Not Anywhere were in Malahide this weekend talking to members of the public about the high carbon footprint of LNG and the upcoming response from TD Minister O’Brien to An Coimisiún Pleanála’s request regarding Shannon LNG’s planning application (1/2)

Using our template, email Minister O’Brien urging him to respond that the Government is categorically against private LNG terminals and that the 4th March cessation of the policy on importation of fracked gas does not allow for the importation of LNG by private companies.
