Dr @laurajkehoe, Environmental Scientist is at #ClimateCampIreland to stop #ShannonLNG .
“Scientists are ripping our hair out. Politicians listen, nod & smile, then everything carries on as normal. Last year the govt promised to cut emissions by 4.8% but emissions went up by 5%.”
Inspirational week at #ClimateCampIreland #Leitrim with important discussions about so many important issues like #mining , #fracking , #forestry as well as positive solutions. Communities determined to resist threats and build a sustainable future. #CommunitiesNotShareholders
Save Leitrim & climate activists blocked drains with 100s of Sitka spruce saplings on Coillte peatland in north Leitrim.
Native broadleaf trees were then planted on the site of #ClimateCampIreland .

Last week I spoke at #climatecampireland about the reasons behind the expansion of data centres in Ireland and the need for workers and environmentalists to unite in the fight against the growing commodification of our lives and the destruction of quality jobs 🧵

The group, aged 5-75, used the saplings to block drains in the publicly-owned plyantation near Manorhamilton, thereby beginning restoration of the degraded peatland. They also planted native broadleaf trees on a nearby farm at the site of this year’s #ClimateCampIreland

Thank you all at #ClimateCampIreland for leaving the field spotless after the camp finished yesterday.
You were all amazing.
Thanks everyone that made it to our session at #ClimateCampIreland yesterday. It was a great discussion about the impact of the climate emergency on the Traveller community. Thanks also to Róisín Loughrey for capturing these images. #CommunitiesNotShareholders #ClimateJustice
On way cycling to #ClimateCampIreland passed planning application notice for LNG. The IPCC say no new fossil fuel infrastructure if we are to avoid burning our home.
