In Ireland and travelling by public transport. It's like being in the 1980s . And not in a good way

If I am not wrong, Ursula von der Leyen has not yet said a single word about the arrest warrant for Netanyahu issued by the ICC, but she immediately rushed to comment on this decision of the Bern Convention

[Josep Borrell Fontelles @JosepBorrellF]

I take note of the decision of the @IntlCrimCourt to issue arrest warrants for Israel PM Netanyahu, former Minister Gallant, and Hamas leader Deif.

These decisions are binding on all States party to the Rome Statute, which includes all EU Member States.

@EamonRyan @COP29_AZ Hopefully the finance is not just for energy transition but ecosystem restoration. Restoring forests and wetlands are necessary to prevent flooding like in valencia.

[Claire McCamphill @CLAIREMCCAMPHIL]

@EddyWax And prevention will really focus on what scientists have for decades pointed out to needs to be done on ecoamsystem restoration to restore spains dysfunctional water cycle. Right ? https://t.co/PeFJR180AP

[Stephen Barlow @SteB777]

It is vital, now that the climate crisis is becoming far more obvious, think the flooding in Valencia, that we are in a place, where we can say to the public, even to Trump supporters, look this crisis is real, you are being lied to.

If all the progressive voices, most of the climate activists, all leave Twitter, and going into their little bubbles with like-minded people, then Elon Musk will have won, and completed his mission. This is why he's not being bothered about losing advertisers and revenue.

Today on #WorldFoodDay I’m launching a #PlantBasedPledge !

If we want to restore nature , we have to change our food systems . . . I’m asking the environmental sector to lead this change by pledging to go 100% plant-based .

It’s time for Labour to remember its roots and reinstate the right to peaceful protest.

@whittledaway NL did this in response to legal action taken by citizen for failure to comply with eutrophication status of habitats. It's difficult to see this happening in IE without similar legal pressure.

In February, residents of Paris took action against the trend toward bigger and bigger cars taking to the street each year by voting to triple parking fees for large SUVs.

Will other European cities be inspired to re-evaluate their relationship with huge SUVs?

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

The longest sentence handed down to a violent racist rioter this week is shorter than the sentences imposed on entirely peaceful environmental protesters last month.
Labour must repeal the Tory laws that treat peaceful protest more severely than violent disorder and assault.

@PanosPanagos33 @EU_ScienceHub @SaferPhos @InnovatePhos @EUAgri @lultimoalbero @theGSBI @EUEnvironment @EUPublications @EP_Agriculture @EJPSOIL Any idea on why levels are so high in Ireland?

[Claire McCamphill @CLAIREMCCAMPHIL]

@FintanKelly_ Thanks! It's the first time for the kids (4 and 6) to be properly put to the test with a hiking holiday.

Eurostar brussels to amsterdam is the first leg of our train odyssey to the dolomites. Eurostar why can't I chose my seat on this train ?

[Claire McCamphill @CLAIREMCCAMPHIL]

@keithalexander From amsterdam 6.30 pm to innsbruck with nightjet 10 am and then to trento 13.30 with trenitalia. And then a taxi transfer to lake molveno. 1hr.

@GoodFoodEurope Good to see. Do you know the reason why the company went for foie gras? Is it due to the animal cruelty concerns around foie gras, or because it sells at a higher price ?

[Claire McCamphill @CLAIREMCCAMPHIL]

@NewtonEmerson Tangible benefits of heavy metals in your mouth, where safe alternatives exist throughout europe for decades. What a win. (Ps. Hi from ski bunny days! )
