The French government (note, not the Irish Government) called on Sunday to postpone a crucial vote by countries on the EU-Mercosur trade agreement, widening a rift within the bloc over the controversial pact. www.politico.eu/article/fran...

A moving account by Ed Gardiner on his experience in the west bank, reflections on recent abhorrent attacks on fellow La Via Campesina workers there. Also the (lack of) response by the british media to hunger strikes for alleged offences relating to Palestine Action.

Donegal farmers launch wild venison snacks venture - In many parts of Ireland deer numbers will need to be reduced to restore and re-establish native woodlands. Expanding the market for wild venison is only a good thing. share.google/F5Eb6fyEQz57...

Well done and thank you Elaine and an taisce

Fergal, founding member of Talamh Beo, will join this panel on Wednesday offering an agroecological perspective on trade

We need collective action, yet despite being the largest methane emitter in Europe, the agri-food sector is notably lagging behind. As @talamhbeo.bsky.social shared today, "it's not just about the cow, but how we farm." We need a food systems approach to drive change and reduce methane now⌛📉

New EAT-Lancet warns: food systems breach Planetary Boundaries. “EAT-Lancet 2025 places justice at the centre, not only as a goal but also as a vital part of enabling transformation,” says Centre Director Line Gordon, one of the report’s lead authors. www.stockholmresilience.org/5.5e96ff7d19...

This has enormous implications for human health. Our health and wellbeing as humans is intrinsically linked to that of the planet and the natural world. #PlanetaryHealth

“Irelands food system “need urgent transformational change””…agroecology and food sovereignty offer a real alternative - one that supports, farmers, communities and the land

Read our latest press statement “Time to take the heads out of the sand” Irish farming is in crisis — pollution, soil decline, biodiversity loss. The system needs change. We’re calling for agroecology and food sovereignty. talamhbeo.ie/time-to-take...

“Reducing all farmers to some skeletal component of a wider economy – rather than recognising them as the most essential element in producing food and potentially regenerating our natural environment – has devalued them..” www.thejournal.ie/readme/farme...

Life would be SO much lovelier, full of beauty, diversity, and joy, if we could just find it in ourselves to give some of the land and seas back to nature. It wouldn't be hard. #Rewilding 🌍

FARMING THAT FEEDS PEOPLE, NOT PROFITS ➡️ https://go.wemove.eu/cap 🚜🧑‍🌾🌾🇪🇺 Small farms are disappearing. Big agri profits are booming—on public money. In 15 years, Europe lost 5 million farms. The EU’s new plan? More for corporations, less for small farmers […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

“Community owned farms may not be able to answer every question posed by a dysfunctional agri-food system, but they can offer insights and realistic alternatives to many of them.”

We were in Brussels this week for “Cut the Gas: Reducing Agri-Methane for our Health, Environment and Climate”. Great opportunity to meet our partners in the Methane Matters Coalition and explore the role of Agroecology in providing solutions

Choppers helping to bring wild fire in Carlow under control. Please don’t start fires in upland areas, there is an orange fire risk with very dry conditions.

Studies show a massive return of fish and marine megafauna to sites with these underwater tidal turbines. How? Simple: overfishing is prevented. If they proved suitable for Irish locations, it would be *such* a win-win, generating clean electricity AND providing a haven for marine ecosystems.

Support Yousef’s legacy work - Palestinian Food Sovereignty

Humans are driving biodiversity loss among all species across the planet, one of the most exhaustive global studies on the subject ever conducted finds. This is *us*, people: you + me. It's up to all of us to get into the fight for the natural world. 🌏 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Delighted to participate in this today.

Some sights from Dublin's Palestine (aka basic humanity) march today, 22nd March.

Listen to the lived experience of an Irish female farmer.

While the Tánaiste is shilling Glanbia to Trump, small growers who are an essential part of any sustainable future in farming are still struggling with the fall out of Storm Éowyn. Their needs are not big, they just aren't valued by the Government. www.change.org/p/support-ir...

To mark International Women's Day and Irish-American Heritage month.

Talamh Beo farmer Fergal Anderson and researcher Pauline Lecole closed the conference with a joint reflection on the benefits of combining both practical and theoretical perspectives in one space.

Talamh Beo is part of a larger coalition of agroecological farmers ECVC @eurovia.org. Today in Brussels ECVC youth delivered their proposals for generational renewal to Commissioner Hansen

Talamh Beo are looking forward to participating in this conference which kicks off tomorrow. Regulation of markets to support Food Sovereignty!

At so many levels those least responsible for climate change are those most vulnerable to it. In this case, small growers trying to produce local food who are reliant on polytunnels. And Government hasn't supported them. www.agriland.ie/farming-news...

By 2030, DCs will account for 30% of electricity on the grid. No other country comes close to that. This kind of media commentary just normalises the fact that Ireland is a pollution sink/cheap energy source for big tech. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/edit...

🌱 Agroecology is anti-racist 🌱 For the final video in our series "Agroecology as a Movement" we sit down with Pamela and Paulette from Black Rootz- the UK's first Black-led food growing enterprise- to explore why agroecology has to be rooted in racial justice. vimeo.com/1058509098
