Great turnout at the Stop Climate Chaos Lobby Day today.

Civil society groups need to keep the pressure on to ensure Government don't row back or slow down on climate measures.

Shovel-ready Luas and Dart projects delayed “to free up funding for more roads”
The Government is delaying shovel-ready public transport projects such as Dart+ South West and Luas Finglas in order "to free up funding for more roads", the Green Party's transport spokesperson, Cllr Feljin Jose, has claimed. He said that this is a "disaster" that large new areas of housing in Dublin -- including a development of nearly 900 homes approved in Adamstown today and the major housing project at Poolbeg -- were being left without the promised transport links, forcing more people into cars on the capital's congested roads.

An Amoc shutdown later this century could see millions of Irish people become #climate migrants; this is something our politicians talking tough on cracking down on migration to Ireland should keep in mind, as I discuss in today's @irishexaminer.bsky.social

John Gibbons: A big freeze could turn the Irish into climate refugees
We should reflect on 'get-tough' proposals on immigration: If the Amoc currents that moderate Ireland’s climate fail, temperatures will plunge, making grass-based agriculture impossible

Australia will soon ban under-16s from the likes of Facebook and TikTok, a world-first move of huge interest to all those worried about the harms of social media.

Regulators are watching to see if Australia can rein in the tech giants - but questions remain as the ban approaches.

Tonight we're celebrating 10 years of Rewilding Britain (@rewildingbritain.org.uk). I don't think I've ever come across an organisation which has shifted both public attitudes and tangible outcomes on an issue so fast. I'm proud to be associated.

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

It’s not a great deal if you don’t need it. And especially this year, others really need support. So for all of us who have enough, let’s refuse to get sucked into the holiday shopping frenzy and share instead of shop. We don’t need more stuff, we need communities where all our neighbors are safe.

📻 I'll be on RTÉ Radio 1's Drivetime at 4:45pm on why a hotel bed tax is a good idea.

Two thirds of EU states have them. Even a tiny 1% charge would raise €12m a year in Dublin City alone - improving the city for tourists and residents alike.

The Metro is delayed again due to a Judicial Review being lodged.

What is a Judicial Review you say?

Let's have a chat about it and on why public transport infrastructure is vital to tackling the ongoing Climate Crisis and our Housing Crisis.

The Metro is yet again delayed. Public transport is vital to tackling the ongoing Climate Crisis and our Housing Crisis.

The Greens were the only party to make any serious headway on the project when we were in Gov. We must continue to push to ensure we have a sustainable public transport system!

➡️ Women are paid 13% less than men.
➡️ They also are less likely to be in the top jobs.

💪 No pay discrimination based on gender (or anything else!) .

👏 This starts with implementing the pay transparency directive that was initiated by @greens-efa.eu back in 2022.
