This is an Irishman that was kidnapped by ice bc they thought he looked like “a Mexican”. Listen to his horribly sad & traumatizing story and the next time a maga says that only criminals are being detained or bad people or whatever tell him about this lad. #OnYourSide 🎥 @belfasttelegraph.co.uk

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

This sounds insane to speak out loud, but is a real statistic: The global seafood industry kills at least 1 trillion wild fish every year to supply 1% of the world’s food. www.cambridge.org/core/journal... www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

Word of the day is ‘swullocking’, from 19th-century East Anglian dialect: sultry, sweltering, and sudiferous (sweat-inducing).

Even worse Another report has suggested that a cruise ship's emissions are the same as 1 million cars: And the reason for this is that their engines run 24/7. Even if they're in the ports, they have to keep running their engines, because it's not only a transport mode www.cbc.ca/radio/asitha...

Want to hear something totally out of this world? How about the echolocation calls of lesser horseshoes – Ireland's rarest + smallest bat – as they head out from their roost at dusk to hunt midges and other insects over an Atlantic rainforest? Volume up!

This is wonderful on Lafcadio Hearn, the first western writer in Japan. I only came across Hearn a couple of months ago, but he’s a fascinating man - and I’m greatly enjoying his work. (Apparently he was one of the first people to write about jazz too!)

These are Dutch ‘geveltuin’ or facade gardens, created by removing a few pavers from the street in front of your home. To celebrate Amsterdam’s 750th birthday, the Municipality will charge 750 residents just €7.50 each to build the bed, add soil and plant it up 😍 www.amsterdam.nl/leefomgeving...
