"We are not powerless." Watch this. Then share it. Then watch it again. https://t.co/rLuFWHncXV Incredibly brave talk from @carolecadwalla Incomprehensible that the @guardian refused to publish a piece about her experience. I came back on Twitter just to share this @TEDTalks

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity.

While these scenes are hard to process, it is important to understand that extrajudicial executions of Palestinian civilians—often children—are absolutely not isolated incidents. These events represent a part of the systematic and widespread actions being carried out by Israeli

Honoured to be at the #goodcausesawards celebrating the amazing work of @mahareesmatters ... such a privilege to be nominated along with so many other phenomenal community groups. Thanks to @NationalLottery for supporting such wonderful work around the country!

“Planning Bill is dangerously flawed”. Our letter in the Irish Times today

Today, 🇵🇸 introduced its draft #UNGA resolution on the ICJ's Advisory Opinion. It is incumbent on the General Assembly to act upon the Court’s findings. 🇮🇪 has co-sponsored and will vote in favour of this resolution. Full Statement ➡️ https://t.co/y3dO2uDOUy

If Hezbollah blew up the phones or pagers of Israeli reservists, inevitably killing and maiming children and bystanders, those cheering on Israel now would be denouncing an obscene act of terrorism. And anyone publicly cheering it on in the West would be liable for arrest.

All of this in the last three days! Mexico, Central Africa, Austria, Poland, and more. Truly baffled why people in the media aren’t more concerned and pushing for coverage that is commensurate. I think they are scared of looking alarmist. It is alarming! Ring the alarm FGS 🚨🔔

I have spent much of this evening reading this campaign document jointly released by @MacranaFeirme @IFAmedia @icmsa @ICOS1894 @DairyIndustryIE @ibec_irl which makes the case for retaining the nitrates derogation. https://t.co/i2gCqis7o4🧵 1/

Putting bombs in pagers, not knowing who might be holding them, in a civillian area. Is an indiscriminate attack. An explicit war crime in the geneva conventions. "apparent terror attack" is the correct framing for this

📢UN to 198 countries of the world: Your new national climate plans, due by Feb 2025, "will be among the most important policy documents produced this century"📢 What are the odds that anyone outside climate policy world has heard about this…? https://t.co/kenFbHJoQe

If it were iPhones that were leaving the factory with explosives inside, the media would be a hell of a lot faster to cotton on to what a horrific precedent has been set today. Nothing can justify this. It's a crime. A crime. And everyone in the world is less safe for it.

Think about it for a moment: people desperately trying to prevent scenarios like this are criminalised and jailed for up to 5 years for *peaceful* protests against #climate breakdown. In truth, they are heroes and we owe them everything. https://t.co/6z5kaHWfPK

Staggering piece of reportage, data viz & photography from a team at Bloomberg on the ruin that is Gaza. 42 million tonnes of rubble. As an historian specializing in *post-WW2 reconstruction* puts it: “Gaza is something never seen before in the history of urbanism.”

2023 was the deadliest year for humanitarian workers. On World Humanitarian Day, we pay tribute to those killed while attempting to help others. Humanitarians & civilians are #NotATarget. 🇮🇪 continues to call for strict adherence to I’ntl Humanitarian Law in all conflicts.

all the arguments saying "the planes fly whether there are people on them or not" are designed, like all climate inactivist tropes, to tell people that their personal actions don't matter, and that individuals have no power, which is entirely false

Delighted to share this new, free to download @IEA_ETSAP book collating contributions from around the world on aligning the energy transition and climate action with other sustainable development goals. Published by @SpringerEnergy & available here https://t.co/WVR7BPP4kx

Situation on global emissions now so dire that carbon capture technologies will have to be deployed. Crucially, these must be *in addition to* slashing CO2, methane, not as a get-out-of-jail card. Good piece by @HannahEDaly today. https://t.co/UfhY5NH7a1

“Stop the fecking lights” ☘️🇮🇪😂😂 More fantastic Humpback Whale action today in Dingle Bay!! 🐋🚤
