Great breaking news!
Shannon LNG power station planning permission PAUSED in the Irish High Court on grounds that 3 gigawatts of gas-fired stations already have planning consent, breaching the 2 gigawatts government policy target. Well done @FIEIRELAND

The Irish government is walking away from climate mitigation.
Infrastructure for LNG, the dirtiest fossil fuel possible, is a crucial part of that.
We need a movement to stop them.

Irish politicians inside and outside of government need to oppose any move to imports fracked gas/LNG to #Ireland. Well done to all on today’s press conference. @MichealMartinTD @SimonHarrisTD @paulmurphy_TD @ivanabacik @HollyCairnsTD @rodericogorman @MaryLouMcDonald

The Irish will not accept walking away from from a future where we try to stay under 1.5, where we try to get to net zero, where we actually are really serious about the future of our children,
like where it's not just a narrative #StopShannonLNG @SafetyBeforeLng @ShaunaReports

In 2019 @MarianHarkin & @FrankFeighan signed a pledge opposing the importation of fracked gas. Today in 2025 the Irish government has taken a step back w the approval of a long term fossil fuel infrastructure. What has happened to this pledge 4 climate now? @NHNAireland

Devastated. Outraged. Disgusted. @MarianHarkin @FrankFeighan
@scanlon_eamon as my local TD’s what do you have to say to my generation and future generations re the approval of a long term fossil fuel infrastructure in the middle of a climate crisis. #ClimateEmergency No to #LNG

The government just approved Ireland's first LNG facility. To my local TD's @MarianHarkin @FrankFeighan @scanlon_eamon we are in the middle of a climate crisis & your govt is committing to the development of a new long term fossil fuel infrastructure. #ClimateEmergency

Government to approve Ireland’s first LNG facility. This is unacceptable @FrankFeighan @MarianHarkin @scanlon_eamon. We are in a climate crisis and your gov is committing to development of new long term fossil fuel infrastructure. #ClimateEmergency

Communities in Pennsylvania have been sold out by the Green Party. The party can’t expect to be returned to govt with this legacy. @rodericogorman has a short window period to use his power to remove the energy security statement & replace it with a ban on LNG terminals #SoldOut

Account of what happened between anti-LNG campaigners and the @greenparty_ie leadership on Tuesday. The Greens accepted that the proposed LNG terminal will be using fracked gas, if it gets built.

In 2019 the country was proud as the govt supported the Youth assembly on climate plea for a ban on the importation of fracked gas.Voices of communities suffering in Pennsylvania from fracking echoed in the Dáil This is ur time @rodericogorman @greenparty_ie to do the right thing
Second recommendation calls for Ireland to ban importation of fracked gas and invest solely in renewables #RTEonClimate #YouthAssembly

Two of our Love Leitrim members @Westyeddy @creevylea
were delighted to talk to community and youth workers sharing our experience from 2011 onwards, working with other groups to achieve the ban in fracking in 2017. Thanks to @foeireland for inviting us. #KeepIrelandLNGFree

As someone who supported @greenparty_ie to stop fracked gas imports via LNG, I'm concerned they're changing course. It's critical that @EamonRyan consider the public health, safety, & climate harms of LNG just as the US gov’t is doing and that the #GreensGetOffGas 🧵
6 May 2024
We've banned fracking & the use of fracked gas via LNG in Ireland but now the government is being accused of 'breaking its promise to stop LNG' over proposals for a floating facility
