Fantastic to have @PresidentIRL, an Uachtaráin Michael D. Higgins, in @DCU today for the launch of @DCUClimate. “Ultimately, climate action requires us all to play our part to mitigate it and adapt to that which is already occurring.” #DCUClimate2022

Delighted to have graduated this weekend with a MSc in Climate Change from DCU. When it come to preserving our environment, we need to better and we can do better - that’s what motivated me to take on this course. 🌍

“There’s no such thing as climate.” -Jordan Peterson It’s fascinating that so many people believe this guy to be extremely intelligent. To go on the most listened-to podcast in the world, and with no relevant expertise, surmise that climate scientists are “doing it wrong” 🙄
Holy moly. I don't think I can do this. First words out of Peterson's mouth in the Joe Rogan interview are complete self parody. I can't even dunk on it.

Replying to @jeffskoll
@jeffskoll Hi Jeff, I'm looking to use a quote of yours in an academic paper I'm writing, but I can't source it. The quote is: "It would be ironic, not to mention wrong, if we added to the global warming that Al Gore warns about in his film." Do you remember where you said this?

With all the xenophobia around, and the bizarre politicalisation of the legitimacy of COVID19, we should reflect and pay tribute to Dr Waqar Ali. A Muslim doctor, originally from Pakistan, who lost his life as a result of treating people on the frontline in an Irish hospital. RIP
Dr Waqar Ali, a Muslim Doctor working in #Ireland, was in the ICU since April and sadly passed away few hours ago. Healthcare workers are at the front fighting against #COVID19. They are the real Heroes! Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilaihi Rajioon.

Tonight was supposed to be our engagement party to celebrate our good news with friends and family. However, during the week, we decided it would be irresponsible and selfish of us to put others at risk. So tonight we celebrate at home alone. Be responsible! #Covid_19

Hours after proposing, my beautiful fiancée gets up in front of all the guests in Ashford Castle and sings my favourite song - which just so happens to be about a proposal, albeit under a lot more tragic circumstances. Níl aon leigheas ar an ngrá ach pósadh.❤️ #Grace @siomhanir

In the age of social media, websites and apps, there is absolutely no need to be plastering election posters on our streets anymore. With an election now announced by government, the banning of posters should also be instated. It’s 2020, they are long-outdated.

2 years a vegetarian this month. Still alive. Somehow getting enough protein. Somehow I haven’t wasted away. Haven’t lost muscle mass, strength or fitness levels. I’m not suffering from any deficiencies. I’m still here 😊

The amount of people in gyms using watt bikes, rowers, skiers and mountain climbers. Wouldn’t it be great to harness the energy expended on these machines. It would definitely reduce the running costs and carbon footprint of gyms.

It's great to see the media now covering the Amazon fires and so many people expressing concern. But the Amazon is being deforested everyday at alarmimg rate, and 80% of that is due to the beef industry. These fires were in fact started to clear the land for cattle ranching.

The Amazon produces 20% of the oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere, hence being referred to as the "lungs of the planet". By losing the rain forest, the planet also has less ability to uptake the carbon dioxide in our atmosphere, which furthermore massively affects climate change.

Seeing this guys documentary (Cowspiracy) was the reason I turned vegetarian a year and a half ago. He makes a great point here that the misinformation we are given, that we need meat in our diet, generally comes from the corporations that profit from its sale.
#UnderTheSkin podcast with @kip_andersen co-director of @Cowspiracy and @@wthfilm out this Sat 15th June on @hearluminary.
