The Irish data centre industry have commissioned a report arguing that data centre growth is necessary for offshore wind development. This is how big tech moves to own the energy transition. It has nothing to do with decarbonisation. irishtimes.com/business/2024/….

A thread🧵 1/18 Weedkiller is not a magic eraser. It has severe, often long-lasting ecological consequences & we need to curb its use, right now. It is doused over the length & breadth of the country for convenience, but the convenience is only ours, if a convenience at all.

Winter is a fascinating season, and a most wonderful time to truly appreciate the #sphagnum mosses, the essence of the bog. As the surrounding flora colour fades in Winter, the bog pools are teeming with sphagnum life. A Winter sphagnum bouquet #Portal #WINTER #irishbogs

A new investigation just found that 78% of the top 50 carbon offset projects were "likely junk or worthless." Many of the biggest corporations in the world continue to use these offsets to delay real carbon reductions and climate action.

MAJOR UPDATE: All planetary boundaries are assessed, and six are crossed. For the first time ever, scientists have quantified all nine planetary boundaries. Six of them are already transgressed and we are increasing pressure on the others. Read more: buff.ly/45Ps1QG

We’re told that capitalism is all about innovation. But capital does not invest in innovations that are not profitable, even if they would dramatically improve well-being and ecology. The quality of innovation could be dramatically improved in a post-capitalist economy.

While we were sleeping, the nocturnal world carried on their work to pollinate crops and keep our ecosystems healthy - but more and more are being prevented from doing so - suspended in dizzying circles around unnecessary lights.1/3
