Sunk costs in fossil fuel infrastructure could sink us The greatest cost of new fossil fuel projects may be the missed opportunity to build clean energy

In my column today, I examine new fossil fuel infrastructure - justified for energy security - in light of the lack of a clear, legally grounded plan for how fossil fuels will be phased out, and how state bodies will be held accountable for that trajectory.

...and the line I may quote forever more to anyone who says climate reporting is too doomy:
"The problem is that the problem is so big that to even describe it factually sounds like scaremongering"

I think the motorist in that case is either selfish or ignorant. The straight on light will turn green eventually (after about 15-30 seconds I guess) in that case and everyone can then proceed. There's a similar situation at the junction of Lavitt's Quay and Christy Ring Bridge

I would go into primary position in the left lane all the way to the next junction. There's a whole other lane if someone wants to overtake. The Nissan probably assumed you were staying in the right lane in the clip. Not sure why you were beeped at previously

My take on an electoral Black Friday for the Green Party is now available on the @irishexaminer.bsky.social
