The flooding in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil

The assault on Rafah is Israel's most devastating attack on civilians yet. My colleague on the ground has described the terror of it. This is intolerable and indefensible. 1m cannot evacuate. Israel is in absolute breach of international humanitarian law.

Delighted to start the #DarknessIntoLight event this morning in ⁦UCC Ireland⁩. Amazing turnout & over 30 events in Cork. Thinking of those touched by suicide.

We were out ourselves yesterday enjoying the fine weather and missed that a new Irish record for solar output was set Thursday: 540MW at 2pm (approx. 12% of demand at the time).

It's set to be a summer of solar records and we plan to report on every single one!

‘“Climate change will not suddenly become dangerous at 1.5C – it already is – and it will not be ‘game over’ if we pass 2C, which we might well do,” said Prof Peter Cox, of the University of Exeter, in the UK.’ theguardian.com/environment/ar…

What would Brian Leddin TD do as mayor of #Limerick ?

🟢Metropolitan railway network
🟢Street and town renewal
🟢Midwest clean energy hub

Listen to hear more of this vision for Limerick and the Midwest.

Last week solar energy provided around 400mw, about 10% of demand, at its peak.
The pipeline for new solar energy projects means we could see days with twice as much solar energy after not too long. We're getting there, we just need to #KeepGoingGreen
