#ClimateStrike #Dublin week 366!. 7 years this month and still here. Here's to more #FridaysForFuture in 2026 and, more importantly, some climate action. @philkearney.bsky.social @trocaire.bsky.social

It’s official, Christmas has started! A magnificent night at the annual Maynooth Carol Service last night, bringing three amazing nights of performance to a close. A signal for many that Christmas is here.

This is a really good piece on the quite frankly shocking (to some) developing Catholic (and other denominations) opposition to fascism. More Romero than Franco. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Melton Luhanga from our partner CARD Malawi, tells us what he wants to see in the days ahead at COP30. Did you know that loss & damage caused by Cyclone Freddy in Malawi in 2023 is over $506 million? This is why Loss & Damage funding is vital for countries on the frontline of the climate crisis.

Trócaire's @siobhancurran.bsky.social explains why we need a fossil fuel phase out, and why the Irish government must start putting people and the planet first, not corporations. As thousands marched to the Dáil on Saturday, the message couldn't be clearer - we need climate justice NOW!

At COP30 today, 62 faith institutions have announced their divestment from fossil fuels 🌍 This is one of the biggest fossil fuel divestment announcements to date, and a real example of climate leadership and a commitment to a fairer future. Learn more➡️ laudatosimovement.org/news/62-fait...

#Fridaysforfuture Dublin week 338 today... #LaudatosiWeek

Friends of #FridaysforFuture, Dublin, hanging in there - Week 327. Sorry for the lapses in posting, but the drumbeat goes on. We're already at this much longer than a US presidential term. See www.antaisce.org/News/high-st... on IFAC/CCAC report on Ireland failing to meet climate obligations.

Amazing work, thank you. #FFFMapSolidarity, 10 people, recorded, Dublin, Week 323 is amazing thanks @janemellett1.bsky.social, @philkearney.bsky.social‬ et al bsky.app/profile/phil...

Friends of #FridaysforFuture, Dublin. Week 323. ‘Oh, what’ll you do now, my blue-eyed son? Oh, what’ll you do now, my darling young one? From Dylan’s ‘A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall.’ Maybe it’s falling. Nobel prophet.

Save our beer - join the climate strike, Fridays at 1pm, Dail Eireann. #climatejustice

Friends of #FridaysforFuture, Dublin, Week 321. There are more of us climate striking than there are countries who have submitted their revised NDCs under the #ParisAgreement - eldik.r.sp1-brevo.net/mk/mr/sh/1t6.... The @UNFCCC process is not fit for purpose - www.clubofrome.org/cop-reform-2...

Seeds of Hope Conference #laudatosi

What a great day at our #SeedsofHope conference 'Returning Biodiversity to our Parishes.' Held in Mallow yesterday with 140 people who want to get involved in #ReturnToNature in the dioceses of Kerry, Killaloe, Limerick, Cashel & Emly. #Laudatosi10

I hope all our newly elected TDs were listening to the people demonstrating on the streets of Dublin today. They were calling to pass the #OccupiedTerritoriesBill within the first 100 days of govt - no delays, no watering down.

Thoughts with those on the Aran Islands tonight. Gusts of 210kmh are possible there on the latest high resolution charts. #StormÉowyn

Friends of #FridaysforFuture, Week 319. Visit & support from outgoing Min. Eamon Ryan whose legacy on climate will stand the test of time. Meanwhile, new Govt's PfG promises more roads, flights, data centres, beef & dairy agri and cabinet will include some who voted against the Climate Act 2021.

Looking forward to the next #Laudatosi conference in Mallow next week exploring how churches can restore biodiversity to their grounds. A great way to kick off LS 10th Anniversary celebrations. #SeedsOfHope "Truly, much can be done!" (LS, 180)

Just another 14 days before sunset is after 5pm 🙌

"The charity Oxfam said the super-rich have already used their share of carbon for all of 2025, while it would take the poorest 50% of the global population more than three years to use the same amount." - @irishexaminer.bsky.social www.irishexaminer.com/news/arid-41...

Friends of #FridaysforFuture Dublin, week 318. There was a great turnout today and warm and enthusiastic feedback from passersby and beepers. Have the images from the California fires sparked greater concern? See Copernicus report - bit.ly/424M12O. 2024 hottest year so far.

LA's fires are whirling around the telescopes where we discovered the expanding universe. We've never needed human intelligence and curiosity more billmckibben.substack.com/publish/post...

Happy New Year blue sky people. May 2025 bring peace and hope to a troubled world. 🙏
