🎙️ Ep3 of Climate change-off the record out now “…what we eat and how we heat…” those are the big things when it comes to tackling climate change - Paul Deane @ucc.ie @uniofgalway.bsky.social @drclarenoone.bsky.social #climatechange #climateaction #climatecommunication

‪“…what we eat and how we heat…” those are the big things when it comes to tackling climate change according to Paul Deane 🎙️ Ep3 of Climate change-off the record out now @ucc.ie @uniofgalway.bsky.social @drclarenoone.bsky.social @roisinmoriarty.com #climateaction

Episode 3 is live! 🎉 Really enjoyed this conversation with Dr Paul Deane — climate, energy systems, books, and hopes for the future. @roisinmoriarty.com @cc-offtherecord.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/66Wo...

🎙️ Dr Paul Deane @ucc.ie will be our next guest. We had a great chat with Paul on topics from Irish music, capsule wardrobes and how nice it is to live in climate friendly home. Coming soon... #climatechange #climateaction #climatecommunication @drclarenoone.bsky.social @roisinmoriarty.com

🎙️Delighted to announce our next guest on the podcast. Dr Paul Deane Paul is senior lecturer in clean energy futures at University College Cork, Ireland. 🇮🇪 He is a frequent media contributor and advisor to governments and companies on sustainable energy strategies and climate policy. 🌎

I'm very grateful to have my reflections from #COP30 published in today's Sunday Independent.😊🌎 My time in Belém was unpredictable, intense, and deeply human — but also surprisingly hopeful.❤️ m.independent.ie/world-news/w...

“Most of the things that we need to do for climate change we need to do anyway and we would generally be better off doing those things” @hannahdaly.ie 🎙️ Ep2 Climate change-off the record @cc-offtherecord.bsky.social out now @ucc.ie @uniofgalway.bsky.social @drclarenoone.bsky.social

...she is the founding Programme Director of UCC’s new BSc in Sustainability and a lead author of Ireland's Climate Change Assessment More information coming soon... #climatechange #climateaction #climatecommunication @drclarenoone.bsky.social @roisinmoriarty.com @ucc.ie

🎙️ Exciting news! Our second guest on the podcast is Professor @hannahdaly.ie 🇮🇪 Hannah is Professor of Sustainable Energy @ucc.ie Her research focuses on modelling national and global decarbonisation pathways, with particular expertise in energy systems, carbon budgets and climate policy...

On the ground in Belém as COP30 kicks off. Nature and Community take Center Stage. President Lula has managed to walk a fine line between urgency and optimism, uniting world leaders around what connects us, rather than what divides us. I’m excited for the week ahead. #climatehope🇧🇷💚

Really looking forward to attending COP 30 in #Belém next week as an observer. 😊 @universityofgalway.bsky.social If you'll be on the ground, l'd love to connect and share insights. #cop30 #amazonia

Delighted to be invited to speak at the School of Business & Economics, for an Environmental Awareness & Sustainability Careers event @universityofgalway.bsky.social @uniofgalwaycairnes.bsky.social @cc-offtherecord.bsky.social #Sustainability #ClimateAction 🌎

Just added @cc-offtherecord.bsky.social to Podcast Index so it should be available on AntennaPod (and many other platforms soon)

In nice things we apparently can’t have here’s tgv high speed train getting from Paris to Reims in about 40 minutes which is about the fastest I can get from maynooth to Dublin which is a full 25km. Imagine these dublin to cork, Galway, Belfast and letterkenny. Let’s not mention the crossing sun am

Every ton of CO2 matters : @climatenerilie.bsky.social quantifies the climatic impacts of one large fossil fuel project and its implications for further human heat exposure or coral reef loss, and how committed emissions challenge climate pledges www.nature.com/articles/s44...

This delay and the dilution of language to “where appropriate” are not harmless compromises. They will cost lives.

Huge thanks to everyone who’s been sharing and listening — the response has been fantastic! 😊

@ucc.ie @uniofgalway.bsky.social @maynoothuniversity.ie

We were a bit nervous recording our first podcast with Ireland’s IPCC superstar @peterthorne.bsky.social but @drclarenoone.bsky.social and I had a great chat with him 🙂 As someone who works on climate change if left me with a lot to reflect on, in a good way #climateaction #hope & everyday chats

It has been very very busy few weeks but so happy that the first episode of climate change off the record will be coming out very soon! @drclarenoone.bsky.social

Exciting news! We, @drclarenoone.bsky.social and I, are starting a climate change #podcast 🎙️ called *Climate change--off the record* @cc-offtherecord.bsky.social where we talk to experts about the ups and downs of working on climate change Stay tuned... @ucc.ie #climateaction

May 2025 breaks an unprecedented long sequence of months over 1.5ºC above pre-industrial 🌡️ May 2025 was the second warmest May globally 📈 May 2025 was 1.40°C above the estimated 1850-1900 average 🌊 SSTs were the 2nd highest on record for May, with an extreme marine heatwave in the North Atlantic

The marine heatwave off the coast of Ireland is pretty severe at the moment. Temperatures are about 3ºC above normal for this time of the year. Source: www.marine.ie/site-area/da...

There is an enormous gap between what the Irish government says it will do on climate, and what it is actually getting done. There is an even bigger gap between what it says it’ll do and what science says needs to be done. “Hot Mess” episode 30 Listen: 👉 www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

So after quite a few weeks investigating Ireland’s culling of badgers to control TB, I found data that shows that a staggering 80% of the protected species killed by the Department of Agriculture were TB free. jrnl.ie/6709659

Maybe I should ask one of my favorite climate podcasts... any advice for novice pod-casters @climatealarmclock.bsky.social ?

Looking for advice #podcast What are all the things you know now that would have been helpful to know when you started? Dr Clare Noone @uniofgalway.bsky.social and I will be working on a #Climate podcast this summer with support from @ucc.ie & @researchireland.bsky.social

Toxic Town - the Netflix retelling of a real-life toxic pollution event which caused birth defects in the town of Corby (UK) - offers a stark warning on rollbacks of environmental regulations By @kirstypringle.bsky.social & @jimmcquaid.bsky.social: theconversation.com/netflixs-tox...

“A colossal missed opportunity” - a clear message in a new report from from Ireland’s fiscal and climate advisory councils. Instead of taking action to cut emissions (making energy cleaner & more secure, & diversifying farming) we face €26 billion in compliance costs to meet EU targets

Real-time cyclone tracker for #Alfred here: zoom.earth/storms/alfre...

Tropical Cyclone #Alfred is forecast to make a sharp turn westward towards southern Queensland, Australia in the coming days. Landfall is likely north of #Brisbane later this week. A powerful easterly swell and heavy rain could bring coastal flooding from Wednesday as Alfred nears.

Tropical Cyclone #Garance has made a direct landfall over the island of La Réunion in the Indian Ocean with winds over 165 km/h 🇷🇪 This animation shows the recent satellite imagery with rain detected by radar. Yellow = heavy/extreme rain.

What these nihilistic vandals are doing to dismantle science & medicine—generations of expertise & public service & life improving benefits—is cultural revolution level national self harm. No foreign foe could inflict such brutal damage & senseless suffering on US so fast & effectively & unresisted.

Delighted to announce that @edhawkins.org has been approved for an adjunct Prof position in the ICARUS climate research centre @maynoothuni.bsky.social (I really must set up an ICARUS account here ...) which will formalise and strengthen our existing collaborations. Welcome Ed!

In a world of increasing disinformation -- where governments and Big Tech are now leading sources of nonsense -- we need to listen to independent truth-tellers and experts. Bluesky is a great place to find them. Here's a starter pack of folks I'd recommend in climate. go.bsky.app/Q4Uo8vV
