Please donate to our ongoing legal battle with #Rusal. The largest Alumina refinery in Europe dumped its toxic waste near the Shannon Estuary for decades. We recently prevented Aughinish expanding, but we need to keep the pressure on. https://t.co/dxJRY9hA8O

The Stop Shannon LNG Coalition have hung a banner on the River Shannon and are leafleting at @RiverfestLmk to bring awareness to the dangerous fracked gas imports into terminal that is being planned for the Shannon Estuary 🥁

Brilliant letter - crystal clear, historically informed and entirely reasonable. So far ahead of the 'public' commentary and Government PR we are used to hearing on this.

[Futureproof Clare @FutureproofC]

@donlav @PBresnihan If you are "defending" people with bombs and bullets then it definitely is militarisation.

Thanks to @clarefm for the opportunity to refute @MichaelHealyRae arguing for fracked gas imports on live radio.

Thanks to Joe Nash for hosting FPC on Wednesday and listening to our many concerns about the proposed fracked gas import terminal

@SadhbhO @greenparty_ie Appreciate your grace but LNG isn't just any one issue in our opinion. Advocating for building new fossil fuel infrastructure is not a green policy but it is a policy that Green Party voiced in correspondence with voters and even in their election manifesto.

[Futureproof Clare @FutureproofC]

@SadhbhO @greenparty_ie Hi Sadhbh, we are not anonymous, we got a message from Twitter about our account being restricted. My name is Sinéad Sheehan writing from this account. We will be very concerned if Soc Dems or Labour don't get in because that would mean an absence of environmentalists in the Dáil

[Futureproof Clare @FutureproofC]

@SadhbhO Oh come on Sadhbh. A hugely important red line issue for the @greenparty_ie was LNG. And they ended up supporting a state-led LNG terminal while denying that it would import fracked gas. That is why they lost the majority of environmentalists.

[Futureproof Clare @FutureproofC]

@CorkGreens The Greens lost seats because they didn't fulfill their red line promise against fracked gas importation. The fact is that the Greens advocated for a fracked gas import terminal and their election manifesto was less environmentally friendly than @SocDems. Take some responsibility

[Climate Justice Coalition Ireland @ClimatJusticIE]

Thanks to everyone for attending our demo today in Dublin. We had amazing speeches from @ailbhes, Johnny from @IrishDocsEnv, Pádraig from @saveloughneagh_ , Dearbhla from @fossiltreaty, Ellen from @TCD_Envirosoc, @Westyeddy from @love_leitrim, & @RubyFree8

[Futureproof Clare @FutureproofC]

This is hilarious! Looking forward to @SimonHarrisTD visiting Ennis library tomorrow. I'm sure he will get a great welcome there too! @FrackFreeClare

https://t.co/KsJGer5amj Ireland's issues in health, housing and education will be exacerbated by climate change. The new government must take immediate action on LNG policy. Here is a guide for voters to see what parties say about the jugular of Irish climate issues

@DanielTMurray Here is where parties stand on LNG - we don't agree that Greens have outright rejected LNG. An outright rejection would include revoking Action 17 and putting legislation in place banning LNG terminals. https://t.co/KsJGer5amj
