Ivy is such a powerhouse for pollinators. The ivy in the garden is literally buzzing with life. Bumblebees, wasps, honey bees, hover flies and even two beautiful Red Admirals 😍🌱

As #Ireland enters a fuel war, with protesters blocking roads and diesel prices at record highs, I can't get my head around why more people (who can) haven't switched to cycling. I recently passed 4000km on my ebike. No diesel, no traffic, no tax, no insurance, no emissions, no stress, no brainer! 😎

While Trump & his paramilitary gang are waging a pointless culture war on their own citizens, the rest of the world are busy cutting them loose. China are hosting a new head of state every week to sign trade deals. EU have signed deal with India & are finalising the Mercosur deal with South America.

Starmer is the latest in a string of Western leaders to call on Beijing

Half way through our #edchatie hour so would love to hear some examples of how students in your schools are engaging in environmental actions or initiatives. Pic below shows some students who are currently (and successfully) running a tree planting project aimed at getting families to plant 🌱

Using the SDGs is a way of introducing important topics around ESD. Can ESD be incorporated into any subject?

Great to see the @uplift-ireland.bsky.social have removed the option to share on X. All self respecting organisations should do likewise. There will never be a mass exodus until news orgs and large influencers stop using it. Allow it to be a far right echo chamber. It will eat itself alive.

Fascinating lecture this evening by @bmhayward.bsky.social as part of the @epaireland.bsky.social climate lecture series. Her slides on how the importance of true inclusion of youth voice gives lots of food for thought.

Putting a bowl of water out can be a life line for birds in these freezing conditions. Our resident robin has been back and forth to this all morning ❄️

One thing I’m proud of this year is Ireland’s musicians. Every gig I was at this year highlighted the genocide in Gaza and showed solidarity with the Palestinians. Kneecap, Damien Dempsey, @spiderstacy.bsky.social. Tonight on #gradamceoil @eoghanocpbp.bsky.social dedicated his award to Palestine ✊🫶

Our local church has been practicing no-mow in recent years and it’s so rich in wildflowers including pyramidal orchids and these beautiful bee orchids 💚
