Remember this? Disney understood 70 years ago what driving (& bad urban and suburban design creating car dependancy) can do to us. “Motor Mania” from 1950. Are you a Mr. Walker or a Mr. Wheeler? #CarDependency #RoadRage HT @LiorSteinberg

Great graphics in today's @SEAI_ie Energy in Ireland 2023 report.
Ireland's wind farms provided more energy in 2023 than all other renewables combined and 63.6% of ALL carbon emissions saved.
And lads, sure we're only getting going.

The last cabinet meeting of government was a clear signal that Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael want to run a mile from climate action. We never will.

In the third of our one minute manifesto series @cathmartingreen calls for expanding the basic income for the arts to reach all artists in time. The 2,000 artists taking part in the pilot scheme reported better mental health, and more time to devote to their art.

Every other party loves to talk about climate action & stick a few wind turbines on their manifestos. But when it comes down to it, the environment & public transport will not be given priority in the next government if we aren’t in there.
The others will always find reasons not to act. If you want green, vote for the real deal on 29 November 🌱

To be fair, @greenparty_ie has been the most consistent party in Govt re: nightlife. @cathmartingreen has been a fantastic Arts minister who understood and helped our campaign/culture while @Costellop has been a constant supporter in The Dáil too.
