Youth climate protests involve children having to explain to adults what is best, when we are so used to assuming that it should be the other way around. @LIVEChildRights @livuni_ILHRU @CkClimateAction @_ISRF #DS78 buff.ly/39wg19G

When I first agreed to help arrange and promote a screening of @NecessityMovie, there was going to be a simple Q&A with the director afterwards. Now there will be two other climate/environment experts, which makes it a panel. The problem is that all the panellists are white. 1/

Stop Climate Chaos wrote to Minister @RichardbrutonTD in advance of this week's Environment Council meeting #ENVI calling for urgent need to substantially increase the EU’s #ClimateAction to at least 65% emission reductions by 2030.

Our Ocean: Earth's Biggest Carbon Sink
Great piece in latest @Irishwildlife Mag by @ClassenRegina on enormous #NaturalClimateSolutions potential of wild marine habitats like kelp forest.
One the many reasons we are fighting to protect ours here in Bantry Bay, West Cork!

Interesting - Maria Walsh voted in favour of motion to block PCI list that includes #ShannonLNG
1 of only 3 in European People's Party grouping to vote in favour of the motion. She is that green dot top right among a sea of red 👇

Breaking: the European Parliament has just voted to greenlight a #PCIlist of projects eligible for EU funding that includes natural gas infrastructure, despite @EIB pledge to phase out fossil fuel funding.
What does it mean for Europe's energy future? forbes.com/sites/davekeating…

We didn't reject the PCI list.
Wasting €29 billion on unnecessary projects like Shannon LNG
This is a monument to Europe's hypocrisy on climate action, voted for by Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, with the exception of Maria Walsh.

#Fracking @GreensEFA+@GUENGL voted against a €29 billion subsidy for the fossil fuel industry which includes the #ShannonLNG project-Speaking to @GraceOSllvn at 5.15 on 101.3FM about trying to stop the PCI & surprise of @MariaWalshEU lending her support to stopping the #PCIlist

Kevin "Boxer" Moran, is no longer a Minister of State for the OPW, he will not be coming to #Cork to incarcerate our river in concrete
This is an opportunity for the new Gov to make good and look at how Cork's environment can be protected, in a more economical & sustainable way.

Really great to see this; RTÉ have responded positively to public pressure to up their #GE2020 game on #climate.
Please, please do *not* let this be overrun by the Usual Suspects with their faux science & special pleading for dangerous inaction
Coming up on Monday, #GE2020 debate on #ClimateCrisis @ClaireByrneLive. Are the politicians - and voters - prepared to do what it takes for #ClimateAction.
