#climate folks might be interested in new research by Hannah Byrne O’Morain and myself about how the Irish farming media cover climate change 1/

Britain has been running a randomised control trial of an approach called neoliberalism and the results are in:

Everything that Labour ought to stand for - but doesn't - is in the Green Party manifesto. My column.

@chrisadonnelly Ireland’s future will be shaped by the absent voices of climate justice, nature and the land of Ireland herself 🇮🇪

It is this intensely focused, passionately felt defence of our brother and sister species that awakens something in us, something we thought had disappeared with childhood. We are still in love with this wild earth that birthed our wild hearts. @WeallIreland

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your outrage. They have just written again. The tree is reprieved. Notice how they say they will still go ahead after they carry out bat/bird surveys, predetermining the outcome of these surveys! It's not over yet.

For avoidance of doubt, AMOC shutdown in 2030s would mean devastation for Ireland & much of NW-Europe, as regional temperatures plummet, food production crashes & millions of us become #climate refugees.

Our inaction today makes this tomorrow a distinct possibility.

@Slowly, gradually, inevitably, the law must come onside in this unprecedented moment of climate and ecological disruption @qubschooloflaw @QUBVChancellor @QUBResearchPol

Yet another jury of ordinary people returning a not guilty verdict into alleged damage of oil company property in course of a climate protest despite judge withdrawing all legal defences from jury. Increasingly clear climate protest acquittal genie is not going back in the bottle

This is what happens when our only lens for seeing and valuing other species is, ultimately, the market. Prices never reflect the intrinsic rights of species to thrive and flourish. Let’s put the rights of nature at the heart of our constitution, at the heart of who we are.

Irish wild salmon have collapsed from 1.76 million in 1975 to 171,700 in 2022.

And it's the same almost everywhere you look: birds, insects, plants, whole ecosystems ... nature is vanishing on our watch.

But there *is* a cure: mass REWILDING. 🌏

@LNBDublin I like the choice of colour.....

@WeallIreland Essential reading...

[Eoghan Daltun 🌍 @IrishRainforest]

I am DEVOURING this book.

It takes an intimidating subject, something that's constantly degrading EVERY aspect of our lives, society, politics, nature ... and makes it easily understandable to all, in a way that will drop your jaw, over + over.

The very essence of good writing.

[Eoghan Daltun 🌍 @IrishRainforest]

Wow. Just wow.

There's no coming back from this for Israel now. Globally, people are getting informed about the horrific, racist injustices inflicted on Palestinians for so long.

And if you aren't, it's time you did.

Stop whatever you’re doing and take a few minutes to listen to this breathtaking speech by @laurensunfl0wer telling oil chiefs that, since they have no humanity to appeal to, we will instead fight to stop them destroying our living planet for profit.

[Rights of Nature (Ireland) @IrelandsRights]

@qubschooloflaw “I am here to tell you we will stop you”

[Lauren MacDonald🌻 #StopRosebank @laurensunfl0wer]

I just confronted the CEO of @equinor and it’s majority shareholder, the Norwegian government, at their AGM.

The people in this room are responsible for the UK’s biggest undeveloped oil field - Rosebank.

We are no longer pleading. We will #StopRosebank
