Sending @jonsnowC4 every good wish after his announcement today that he is leaving @Channel4News after 32 years. Perhaps he will look to "front longer-form projects..." on some of the issues surrounding toxic extractivism locally, just an idea @Channel4

Great input from Emmet McAleer at #AltUnitedIreland. Dalradian gold-mining is harming both sides of the border. I visited the community there w/ @foe_ni and @foeireland some years ago, and was so deeply moved by the community's resolve.

Some people don't do irony, only #greenwashing. On #EarthDay2021 @the_PDAC posted 👎 This post is typical of an industry built on toxic exploration and exploitation of finite resources and fossil fuels - they take everyone as fools and portray themselves as saviours. #Shamless 🤡

Look no farther than @SaveOurSperrins where @daera_ni gifted a road to prospecting gold-miners. Talk about making in-roads for the gold-diggers. Ireland's mountains, bogs, rivers are forests are indeed 'open' - open for business.
