Children's Rights Over Flights @rightoverflight.bsky.social · 18/09/2025
👩🏽‍🤝‍👨🏼 "A child could tell you that the maths doesn’t add up and that Dublin Airport’s emissions levels will spiral if the planned trajectory is 60 million passengers." 👏We agree with Mark's letter in the Irish Times. 📣 Don't scrap the cap Sign our petition here: my.uplift.ie/petitions/ke...
A child could tell you that the maths doesn't add up and that Dublin Airport's emissions levels will spiral if the planned trajectory is 60 million passengers.

We have just experienced the warmest spring and summer ever according to Met Eireann. Someone has to put the brakes on, because this Government is clearly not serious about achieving the 2030 legally binding climate goal set by the EU of 51 per cent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 levels.

We all need to try to be at least conscious of our damaging impact on the environment by taking a flight. For instance, a return flight from Dublin to Paris emits approximately 484 kg to 490 kg of CO2 per passenger.

I propose that airlines are mandated to publish emissions information when passengers are booking a flight and on boarding passes. This will improve awareness about the damaging environmental impact of flying and some may take climate action and decide not to fly.
- Yours, etc,

MARK FOX,

Dublin 18.

It’s offensive to young people to call adults who behave badly “childish” or “toddlers”. #ChildhoodEthics research has shown that most young people – including toddlers – can demonstrate an active conscience and moral concern for others and the world around them. www.mcgill.ca/voice

There is no finish line for grief. Particularly after a traumatic loss by suicide. There is only learning to carry it differently. Be patient with those still finding their way 💛 #DaddyBlackbird #SuicideLoss #Grief #Hope
