Great to be at the handover of #HandsOffNature signatures to European Commissioner for the Environment Jessika Roswall. Nearly 200,000 EU citizens sent their messages urging the Commission not to touch the laws that protect our water, air, biodiversity, and much more

A government offering you more roads rather than reliable public transport is driving you down a cul de sac. Great to have an oped in @thejournal_ie on transport and the need to think big in terms of public transport.

Car makers peddle the idea that cars signify freedom, but they really aren’t the solution to our transport problems, writes Ciaran Brennan.

"Gibbons’ book is an education for anyone baffled by the rows that bedevil Irish #climate policy...but mostly, it’s a plea for honesty around topics when hiding from the truth has been the national approach" Indo's in-depth review of THE LIE OF THE LAND. https://t.co/rpCxCEIZAv

On the farm where John Gibbons grew up, the rule was that there were only two types of animal: livestock and vermin.

How can anyone think that a poisoned hedgerow looks better? This is a perfect example of why it's long over time to stop selling poison to any and everyone ☠️

Don’t let the EU tear down nature protection. The European Commission wants to roll back vital environmental protections – and they’re asking for your opinion. We have only a short time to speak up...

The gutting of Nature funding from the Infrastructure, Climate and Nature fund by government, at a time when stakeholders are actively engaged in the development of Irelands Nature Restoration Plan, is a disgrace! https://t.co/IiG2G055b2

At both EU and national level, commitments on environmental spending are being scaled back
