Interesting to see the truth about the real cost of offshore wind coming from Denmark, Europe’s forerunner in this industry. Will Ireland learn the lesson before it’s too late?

When FDI and data centres are driving policy, concerns about the damaging environmental impacts of developer-led offshore planning can be dismissed as irrelevant or NIMBYism. A big mistake... @foeireland.bsky.social

Housing is essential but also complex. IF even basic construction targets were met, according to Dr Locan Sirr, that alone will push emissions beyond targets. So how to square that circle?

Would rural Ireland buy in?

But are either the FF or FG approaches what is best for Irish citizens? If the yardstick is GDP or budgets, maybe. If it’s care of our country, the bogs & rivers & forests & seas, neither.

Costs Rica is top of the wish list. Delighted you got to go there. Fingers crossed Ireland will listen, or rather our leaders will…

Was fortunate enough to see this interview. You blew @mrtommy-tiernan.bsky.social away! Did he truly not know you before he was lucky enough to have you on his show? It was great.

And an Irish non-fiction by Dermod Dwyer & his son, Denis. Copy just arrived & looks beautiful.
