I've spent the day in The High Court listening to Lissan Coal Company v An Bord Pleanála. This is a judicial review of ABP's decision to approve the BusConnects Blanchardstown to City Centre scheme.

Our action going totally viral on Twitter news right now!

We will not let the oil industry rest.

They are suffocating our planet. They are fuelling war. They are supporting genocide in Palestine.

Connect the dots. Flooding. Flying.
HE IRISH TIMES Sir, - What connects floods, flying and the Minister for Climate, Energy, Environment and Transport, Darragh O'Brien? Flooding is increasing due to climate change. Flying is the single most detrimental activity in terms of climate effects. O'Brien wants to increase flying by removing the passenger cap at Dublin Airport. Is this what's called joined-up thinking? - Yours, etc, CELESTINE O'REILLY Foxrock.

4 stories in the @irishtimes.com highlight the crazy approach to climate action by the government. 3 articles detailing the heavy financial & social cost of climate breakdown, and 1 where the govt celebrates increasing climate emissions for the airport by lifting the passenger cap. 🤯 #SpeirGorm

So-called Minister of "Climate" has just made a choice. That it's more important to increase flights, than to protect ourselves against flooding, homes uninsurable, people worldwide loosing their livelihoods, a tightrope with tipping points to world wide chaos. www.goloudplayer.com/podcasts/new...

Week 372 of protest as Govt demonstrates cognitive dissonance, trying to ram through a State LNG import terminal as the climate crisis deepens and Ireland is battered by rain and floods. Contact your TDs & tell them to #KeepIrelandLNGFree put a #MoratoriumOnDataCentres and #KeepThePassengerCap

Week 371 protesting for climate justice outside the Dáil. Meanwhile, Minister Darragh O’Brien is trying to ram through legislation to allow him to approve a state LNG terminal. Here’s an action you can take on this NOW!

It is grossly negligent for a national broadcaster to report on Ryanair’s profit margins without once mentioning emissions, given it is one of Europe’s biggest CO₂ emitters.

This is not journalism. It is head in the sand reporting with a generous helping of free corporate PR.

A deeply unserious government
hannahdaly.ie Hannah Daly @hannahdaly.ie · Jan 16
Delaying the 2026 Climate Action Plan is deeply concerning. Efforts are already way off-track & the CAP is the main tool for closing the delivery gap this decade. Saying we must wait for post-2030 carbon budgets is conceptually backwards - delay now makes future targets harder and more expensive.
