.@GerryCarrollPBP on Data Centres: “we don’t know how much electricity they’ll draw, we don’t know how much water they’ll take and we don’t know what it does to our carbon budgets and decision-makers are being asked to consent to something that no Dept can quantify” #Systemfailni
Motion on Monday calling for a moratorium on new hyperscale AI data centres. The motion was passed, but it is non binding. It does not create a legal moratorium. Also hyperscale data centres can’t ever run solely on wind power. They require reliable electricity 24/7, thats a fact
@ismiseliam @ShaunaReports @TheDetailTV Not hard to get a sense of public frustration at the Department’s continuing neglect from the subsequent podcast by Save Our Sperrins 👇#Systemfailni
In NI, officials and decision makers did not consider (or did not know) that emissions is a material planning consideration. @dcsdcouncil has approved 4 data centres with no assessment WHAT SO EVER of strategic planning policy direction to reduce green house gases #Systemfailni
The UK government vastly underestimated carbon emissions from AI data centres and now raised their estimate by more than x100.
Energy use by AI data centres in the UK could cause emissions of 123m tonnes of carbon dioxide – as much generated by 2.7 million people over 10 years.
Net zero for us, but not for the tech giants.
@BBCNewsNI The smell or tell-tale signs of sewage discharge has become a common feature of beach visits in recent times #Systemfailni
First the Ebrington Hotel. Now long-established listed building policies and standards once again compromised in favour of vague concerns around commercial viability. Terrible message being sent out by DCSDC at expense of the city’s built heritage #Systemfailni
By importing 1000s of tonnes of landfill without permission, Dalradian wilfully breached its planning approval. Worryingly, by claiming the landfilling was “inherent” in the permission, the Department wilfully assisted Dalradian circumvent the EIA Regulations #Systemfailni
My report on day 3 of the Omagh goldmine inquiry with @TheDetailTV
🚩Dalradian in ‘breach’ of planning at Camcosy Rd site for years
🚩PAC told it must consider if mining firm given ‘unfair advantage’
🚩Cyanide condition proposed by DfI sparks ‘suspicion’

@GweebarraG @Env_Pillar This council has been granting planning permissions for data centres without any assessment of the effects of large scale emissions on climate. Worse, it has attempted to gaslight the public into believing climate change is not a material planning consideration #Systemfailni
@MatthewOToole2 @SJAMcBride “I have reason to believe that a large number of agri-food applications, which will likely be of significant value to the regional economy, are likely to be made in the near future…”
Another senior official, a few months. Business as usual #Systemfailni
Misfeasance, if not malfeasance, in a public office #Systemfailni
They knew: Declassified files prove Stormont understood Lough Neagh’s pollution decades ago – but then made it worse. Stormont explicitly knew that intensive agriculture was killing our waterways, but then used public money to encourage more factory farms.

Yesterday the Courts quashed another planning permission unlawfully granted (again) by @lisburnccc. The judge was scathing of this council’s neglect and the adverse consequences that have resulted. What a profoundly ill planning service we have! #Systemfailni
This is how a Department says it acted unlawfull while trying to avoid saying it acted unlawfully #Systemfailni
V. interesting development announced by @SaveOurSperrins this afternoon following their recent legal action against @Economy_NI following the Department's decision to ride roughshod over local consensus & popular (99.5%) opinion & questionably grant 7 mineral prospecting licences
Sounds like MLAs are calling out misfeasance in a public office 🤔 #Systemfailni
A5 road: Department told seven times about climate act problems before court decision halted construction

Government often claimed that the operators hid their criminality behind legitimate businesses. Untrue. Both companies were permitted to operate way beyond planning regulation and environmental laws. One received significant public money while causing serious harm #Systemfailni
Two businessmen have been jailed over an illegal Derry dump that could cost £700m to clean up - but did you know a 2013 report found there was a 'history of repeated non-compliances' at the officially regulated site

Despite the warning signs, the Environmental Impact Assessment for the #A6 Road, Derry failed to pick up illegally dumped waste in its path at #Mobuoy. Has the same failure of assessment happened with the #A2 in Newry Mourne and Down? @LizKimminsSF @AndrewMuirNI #Systemfailni
One citizen exercising oversight of much-abused rural planning policy because the Department charged with doing so has abdicated its responsibility. Abject failure on the part of @deptinfra. #Systemfailni
When it should be the guardian of our environment, planning in Derry has long been an incessant menace that has little regard or respect for the sensitive habitats of #prehenwoods and #RiverFaughan, to name but two. Hats off to protectors like George #Systemfailni
Derry's Prehen Woods a lifeline for the whole community.
Prehen Woods in top ten bluebell woods in Britain.

AMAZING to hear that @deptinfra told the PAC enquiry into gold mining they COULDN'T IMAGINE quibbling with a local authority over responsibility for a planning matter... Apparent amnesia re. their 7 year row with @abc_council over Knock Iveagh #systemfailni? #DUH @ShaunaReports
