Workers squeezed while Government props up failing energy model - @ciaranahern.bsky.social

“Instead of fixing a broken system, they are relying on short-term fossil fuel subsidies without any strategic plan to reduce our dependence on oil and gas.

I want the govt to consider free public transport as part of the solution to the energy crisis👇

Such a fantastic antidote to all the chaos in our world right now

The pinnacle of human endeavour and multilateral cooperation

Space flight is something that allows us to dream together as a common humanity

My heart goes out to the family of the young man who died on O’ Connell St

This is a deeply distressing tragedy involving a cement truck & escooter

Something like this sends a shiver down the spine of many of us who cycle & scoot every day

‘Work from home, use public transport and lower speed limits’ – IEA warns energy shock is here The conflict in the Middle East has caused the gravest energy shock of all time, the head of the International Energy Agency has warned.

‘Work from home, use public transport and lower speed limits’ – IEA warns energy shock is here

We are in the greatest energy shock of ALL TIME & we need to conserve fuel

Very disturbing report about support for far right, anti-immigrant positions from elected members of Independent Ireland 😔

We @labour.ie proudly stands against this - we believe that we need immigrants coming to Ireland and that Together We Thrive ❤️

Ireland No. 1 in Europe - yet again. GHGs rose faster (+3.2%) in Ireland in Q3 2025 than ANYWHERE else in Europe.

#Climate action, my eye.

Week 377 and it was great to join up with
@foeireland.bsky.social 's data centres protest and to have
@ciaranahern.bsky.social step in to show support.

This is extremely concerning - and embarrassing - for Ireland

I want CIE and @darraghobrientd.bsky.social to report to the Oireachtas Transport Committee to explain how this happened

We need answers - who thought it was ok to take funds from the US Govt that the company wasn’t entitled to?

Ireland has no known legal commercial peat extraction. Yet it exported €40m worth last year More than 370,000 tonnes of material sold to 21 different countries in 2025, including Israel

This REALLY grinds my gears

Councils say they don’t have the resources to enforce the law on this

If the Minister won’t provide resources he must prohibit the export of peat

I’m all for small domestic use of peat, but what’s happening is outrageous

Taoiseach basically justifying the use of unilateral force because of vetoes at the UN Security Council.

Refusing to condemn the US & Israel attacks as a breach of international law.

Pathetic bending of the knee to the US in advance of Paddy’s day visit. SAD!

Not even lip service to the climate impact of this decision either from the Govt or from RTÉ - cheerleaders for Ireland’s billionaire polluters. Shameful.

Thank you!

Thanks folks!

Hi-vis for everyone!

Thanks Mike. Agreed!

I spoke about the Government’s ridiculous proposal to criminalise cyclists who don’t wear helmets 🪖

The fact they even proposed this betrays their complete lack of understanding of what makes our roads unsafe for cyclists & pedestrians 🚗🚙 @labour.ie @dublincycling.bsky.social

I am reminded of the words uttered by a Giro cycle helmet designer in an interview with Carlton Reid in Forbes journal:
“We do not design helmets specifically to reduce chances or severity of injury when impacts involve a car,” said Richter.
“The number of variables is too
