Breaking news!The government has just voted against the same swift brick amendment they voted for 2 years ago. We can only save our swifts if we all act. Email your MP. Ask them to sign edm.parliament.uk/early-day-… MEET your MP. Tell them how much this matters or we’ll lose them

A Lido represents an opportunity to create a transformational and ambitious public amenity for Dublin, and it is our hope that DCC and the Central Area Committee recognise this and agree to move it forward.

Today Dr Patrick Hart, practicing GP, was imprisoned for 12 months for engaging in legitimate climate protest. They think imprisoning climate protestors will make us back down. But the fire in our hearts and our bellies just grows stronger for justice. 🔥 🌍 💚

Rest in peace President Jimmy Carter. I think when he left office it was the moment we lost the war with ourselves. An amazing man with a life of service

I started Ireland's most ambitious camera trap project in Wicklow as part of Snapshot Europe. Since 2021, I partnered with @UCD_Wildlife + @ReWildWicklow deploying 150 cameras, collecting ~400,000 photos, and ~31 years worth of survey effort. 2024's highlights below! 🧵👇

In my opinion piece in today's @IrishTimes I write about the importance of the 2021 climate law in limiting the extent to which any government including independents can water down or delay climate action. And as @fotoole also writes on the same page, the public wants climate action anyway! It is vital that the Seanad has a strong climate voice to hold the government to account. Vote Sadhbh O' Neill No.1 for TCD Seanad. #TCDSeanad irishtimes.com/opinion/2024/…

📸 Final Design Image Revealed Our third image showcases the #DublinCityLido as a vital piece of social infrastructure with inclusivity and community at its core. A proven not-for-profit model already in use in Dublin today would guarantee affordable access. #CommunityFirst

Hard to think of a modern political party, and politicians, with the courage of the Greens. Not a supporter but they did some of what we must do to avert catastrophe and would have done more if they could knowing they would pay an electoral price. #GE24 #GeneralElection2024

Tough day for @greenparty_ie, could be a complete wipe-out. Meanwhile, the #climate crisis deepens by the month. If there are history books in the future, wonder what they’ll make of all this?

Image #2 of our updated design is here! 🏊‍♀️ With 0 Lidos Dublin is falling behind compared to cities like Helsinki (3 Lidos) and Amsterdam (7 Lidos). A city of its size deserves at least one public outdoor pool. Let’s make it happen. Support the campaign: gofund.me/27103154

Out and about on a neighbour's farm. There. Down towards where the fen begins, we twist and turn, clamber under and between great arches of willow, tall bir h, twists of alder. My neighbour is proud of this woods. A thing she fenced off twice decades ago. And let become...

Never before in its history has humanity built a civilisation that had at its disposal so many different technologies to monitor, measure and predict its own collapse - yet has been so unwilling to do anything about it

Profit over a liveable planet prevails... We were warned, we knew, we understood the consequences, but yet we refused to change. #ClimateCatastrophe
Common sense prevails… Failures on the part of Transport Minister @EamonRyan and Tourism Minister @cathmartingreen forced airlines to take legal action and this is the welcome result. Read more: corporate.ryanair.com/news/r…
