It may be difficult for the Irish Green Party to support the Climate Emergency Measures Bill on Thursday, restricting developments in Data Centres & LNG terminals given that Minister @EamonRyan is unbelievably actually defending Shannon LNG in the Courts

This disgraceful, misogynistic, threatening and vulgar abuse was directed at professional women in this city as well as politicians and should be condemned outright by all reasonable and fair minded individuals #Limerick #Dublin @IrelandTrust @IrishMailSunday
Appalling reports of misogynistic abuse that cannot be tolerated by political parties.

This is the absolute definition of #greenwashing.
Irish Cement will burn 90,000 tonnes of toxic waste at its facility in #Limerick & produces some of the most CO2 intense cement in EU, but now wants to appear 'green' by joining in the @PollinatorPlan

Irish Cement is delighted to be joining over 390 other businesses and organisations supporting the All Ireland Pollinator Plan 2021-2025 @PollinatorPlan - enjoy this short video of some of the insects and wildflowers on our Limerick site. #biodiversity #allirelandpollinatorplan

These 100 companies are responsible for 71% of all CO2 emissions in the world. This is where we need to start. It's that simple.
There is no planet B. There is no time to waste. #ActOnClimate.

The .@greenparty_ie needs to explain publicly and soon how it is going to stop #ShannonLNG.
If it does go ahead it will certainly be the Greens' fault since they always said the Programme for Government, which they negotiated, would prevent it.
Why is the @greenparty_ie committing Environmental Treason by refusing to implement Irish Government policy against LNG terminals & allowing #ShannonLNG lodge new planning application within days for a US fracked gas import terminal?

I wonder what smart answer will the Greens have to the accusation this time that they have hijacked the whole environmental movement in Ireland under false presences. They will have turned everyone against the Greens and the environment will suffer long term.

Unlikely Bedfellows... @MHealyRae comes to the rescue of @greenparty_ie @BrianLeddin in support of Fracked gas terminal in Climate bill, a bill to hurt the rural poor even more, while giving fossil fuel interests and urban elites a free ride

Revelation Climate Chairman @BrianLeddin is a former 5-year employee of new Shannon LNG fracked gas import terminal applicant is feared as real reason he ruled all amendments to Climate Bill banning fracked gas imports out of order

Why is the state letting Irish Cement burn tyres in their cement factory in Limerick?
Not only is this bad for the climate, it is a major health risk as well, especially if something goes wrong at the plant. It is right beside a school, public park and houses.
