Excellent article in @theirishtimes on the carbon footprint of metered dose inhalers!! Well done @OlaLN

[Irish Doctors for the Environment @IrishDocsEnv]

We are hoarse from warning about the #ClimateCrisis and the #BiodiversityCrisis.

Important piece on the carbon footprint of healthcare and crucially, how we must start to act like we’re in a crisis.

The time to act is now!

#SundayWiMIN24 Week 4: Dr Kathleen Lynn (1874-1955)
Today is the 150th birthday of Dr Kathleen Lynn, who was arguably the most influential female doctor in Ireland since women were permitted to enter medical training here. She has (of course!) been featured by WiMIN before.

Thank you Prof Doherty for choosing to speak about climate crisis and global inequity at the #MFSymposium today. It means great things for the current and future TCD medical students that this is a major focus of the senior faculty @gastaut @TrinityMed1 @phreportcard

Poolbeg should really be a 🌳 green and 🌊 blue oasis in the heart of Dublin.

🌱 Making cities more sustainable is truly about making them a better place for both humans and nature.

Poolbeg ought to be the pride of Dublin.

The way @tcddublin have let the lawns at the front of the college go wild is just so brilliant.

It's a brave, in-your-face conversation starter, questioning deep-set, long-unchallenged ideas about land, and the need for constant human dominance and control.
