I will be marking #StopFoodWaste Day, 30 April, in #Limerick.

At @gapireland we go beyond tackling food waste, and help people reconnect with where our food comes from.

Joanne Hunt in today's @theirishtimestoday.bsky.social

"By encouraging us to imagine future fixes to problems we are failing to seriously address in the present, these proposed technologies represent something like the opposite of a solution."

Mark O’Connell in last Saturday's Irish Times.
