@CiaranCuffe has been a great ambassador for both Ireland and the climate who will be hugely missed in @Europarl_EN. He expertly steered the EPBD through parliament, demonstrating all the virtues we need in an MEP. An amazing legacy that will reap benefits for all Europeans
It's been a pleasure and a privilege to serve as Dublin's Green MEP for the past five years. Thanks to all who helped me on the way.
The future of our common home is bigger than one person, one party, or one election. I wish all who serve the best for their time in office.
Ahead of this weekend's #G7 climate ministerial @WorldGBC has today published a framework of Policy Principles to unlock the potential of buildings in delivering a decarbonised, sustainable and resilient society.

What a great discussion this morning w/ @audnug from @WorldGBC, @KurtEmil from @veluxanalyst & @MadsWolff from SUSTAINORDIC on how to build for a future that is worth having & the importance of changing mindsets around timber and fibre building. Designing with communities is key.
Local communities will feel the impact of climate hardest so its important local leaders are delivering the solutions needed. Community engagement a key success factor whether it be Maui, Des Moines or San Jose. Great panel @USGBC and @HilariVarnadore
The Nordics are real innovators when it comes to sustainable construction and learned a lot during this lively discussion with some great panelists. @WorldGBC @Nordic_Climate
Liz from @USGBC leads a panel on actions local governments are taking to realise climate benefits - from San Jose to LA to Greenville the importance of partnerships, local engagements and access to finances is key. #COP27
