In the name of competitiveness and defence, the EU is going backwards on climate action. €800 billion has been committed to prepare for war by 2030, far outstripping anything that is being invested in climate resilience and a green transition. This is madness. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2026...

Opinion: Europe needs to start treating the climate emergency as a threat to our national security
Idea that climate action is about individual responsibility is as ridiculous as suggesting everyone can equip themselves to fight in war

Free “bicycle library” allows Swords residents to try different e-bicycles
A "bicycle library" service has started in Swords, Co Dublin -- it allows people to try an electric-assisted bicycle, or e-bike for short, for up to three months to see if they might be the right fit for them. As previously reported, bike libraries have been set up in different areas, including Ballymun in Dublin City and Limerick City, as well as at a number of large employers such as…

Garda enforcement of illegal bikes needed on Capel Street rather than barriers affecting everyone, campaigners say
A cycling campaign group, I Bike Dublin, has called for immediate removal of trial of chicane barriers on Capel Street and Parliament Street, with the focus instead being on enforcement of illegal electric devices. These devices which are often referred to as "bicycle-shaped objects" are classed as mopeds because they are too overpowered to be considered electric assisted bicycles. For an electric bike to be considered bicycles, the motor assistance must only activate when the user is pedalling and must cut out at 25km/h.

V good article: "The reason our European peers have seen a 12 per cent drop in road deaths since 2019 in the same time we have seen a 31 per cent rise in ours is because we simply are not using the evidence-based solutions that already exist." www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2026...

I’ve noticed an interesting difference between driving and biking. When you are driving, you can’t wait to stop. Always looking for faster routes, shortcuts and ways to get out of your car quicker. On a bike it’s exactly the opposite. We often find ourselves taking the long route just for fun.
