As @EamonRyan & @McConalogue hold crunch climate talks, we're calling on Govt & @MichealMartinTD to ensure all sectors, including agri, do their fair share of emission cuts.
Decision on sectoral targets = litmus test for Govt commitment to #ClimateAction

Gas and nuclear energy labelled as green? No way, EU! 🤦♀️
Taxonomy in its current form is a huge step back in our way towards peace and climate justice.
MEPs, cut off ties with autocrats, stop greenwashing and go renewables ☀️ Dictators can’t own sun & wind!

Bang on the money from @Mickcliff today. SF stands indicted for its absolute failure to show courage or leadership on #climate crisis.
Sadly, they are not alone. Is Varadkar’s populism any different?

If you want to know the story behind these men's dead bodies, read the interview with someone who stayed with them in a bomb shelter...until Russian soldiers came and shot each of them who had served in 2014-2105, or even had a tattoo of Ukraine's trident. vot-tak.tv/novosti/03-04-202…

#VigilforAshling outside Dail — thousands here in sombre silence and solidarity. Similar happening across Ireland & more. Sustained movement needed to uproot culture of gender based, macho violence & every way it’s reproduced by the system. #NotOneMore woman’s life can be taken

"We may wring our hands...at this nauseating brutality, but when someone comes knocking on our door begging for help do we turn them back to the hands of those who may wish to hurt them?"

An absolutely historic decision from the Hague District Court against #Shell. Aside from the obvious headline emissions reduction order (45% by 2030 compared to 2019) there is so much to unpack in the court's reasoning. A few (personal) highlights 👇

Minister your government is proposing a climate Bill that will set economy-wide GHG budgets to include agriculture. A CAP that doesn't address GHG & biodiversity & water impacts will be regarded as a dereliction of duty & will set climateaction back another decade. #agriculture

This is #ClimateBill No.10. Only 4 even got as far as a vote. Before tonight only one had passed 2nd stage.
Tonight’s all-party vote is a tribute to the hard work of many politicians, civil servants & advisers, & thousands of people who kept up the pressure for #ClimateAction
