Life ascending / Nick Lane:
brilliant but challenging book on the origins and development of life.

Other Minds / Peter Godfrey-Smith:
the (sometimes weird) minds of animals

Feral / George Monbiot:
highly readable book - a mixture of personal diary, ecology theory and rewilding

Yes I agree we need climate justice, but unfortunately the Irish electorate don't agree and rejected the Greens and there's not much we can do about that in a democracy.

Agreed - Ireland is dragging her feet - but the 1.5 target is surely a global goal, whereas the climate neutrality goal is a national one. The electorate doesn't seem interested in applying the brakes before we reach the precipice but climate neutrality might be acceptable.

Pity they closed the Harcourt Street line. It was well out of reach of the waves.
