Ireland is fast becoming known as the data centre capital of Europe.
And these centres use a lot of electricity. Paul Deane from UCC Environmental Research Institute compared the electricity use of a data centre with a house, a school and a hospital.

Is @WWF growing cold on @OriginGreen?
Last month, with @AnTaisce, we met WWF and asked them to disassociate themselves from this greenwashing programme.

If you want to see rewilding in Ireland please email [email protected] before Wednesday December 8th.
Simply ask that rewilding be included in the options for farmers who are in receipt of CAP payments.
On Nov 6, while world leaders met in Glasgow for #COP26, people marched all over the world for #ClimateJustice.

We are letting the very rich grab the natural wealth on which we all depend.
My column argues that the most important of all environmental measures are wealth taxes.

Fossil fuel companies run COP in all but name. Their delegation, if it was a country, would be the largest of any state. Double that of the Indigenous constituency, and wielding enormous power in the shadows. COP is discredited and delegitimized by their presence.
🚫🦄We don't have any more time to waste on fairy tales and empty promises! 🦄🚫
Carbon markets, #NetZero plans, and other #FalseSolutions only delay real climate action & greenwash the image of those who have driven the #ClimateCrisis.
At #COP26 we say: no more!
#March4Climate tomorrow Saturday Nov. 6th, 12:00pm at Garden of Remembrance.
@ExtinctRebelsIE is joining more than 40 organised groups to demand the end of empty promises and greenwashing from the government and corporations. Tomorrow is our #Cop26Ireland Bigi Linn! Join us!
I have enjoyed my time at #COP26 - it has been insightful and a valuable learning experience.
However, the buck doesn’t stop here. Tomorrow we MARCH - we want action and we want it now.

Climate justice won't be handed to us by corporation's. If we want real climate action we need to fight for it.
Join us tomorrow at the garden of rememberance at 12pm in Dublin and start fighting for your future. We are stronger together ✊#March4ClimateJustice#COP26Ireland
