The latest EV batteries from BYD can charge to 70% in 5 minutes and 97% in 10 minutes.
They're leaving American manufacturers in the dust, and after Trump's all-out war on renewables and EVs, we may never catch up. China is probably going to supply the world.

Humanity heating planet faster than ever before, study finds #Climate
This is absolutely insane.
More than $1bn a month of European social wealth transferred to US defence tech companies, massively intensifying the potential for war.
And no political leaders speaking out against it.
Article by Rory Rowan and I for Rundale.
A ‘political’ ecology of Ireland's energy transition requires an understanding Ireland's dependent development model, the contradictions of capitalist technology and the need for democratic planning.

Possible signs of progress at Killarney National Park?
This is the Derrycunnihy area of the Park which is being targeted for deer culling and where there are signs of a positive response from the vegetation. Good news...
This government is choosing to make us complicit.
We need full sanctions on the genocidal state of Israel.
That's why we've introduced a bill to do just that.
We need full #BDS.
Instead of that, the government won't even pass the minimal demands of the Occupied Territories Bill.
Israel has violated the “ceasefire” nearly 500 times in 44 days, killing 342 civilians. On October 29th alone the IOF killed 109 Palestinians, including 52 children.
Where is the statement from our Minister, or anyone in Government, condemning this ongoing genocide?
Cowards.
The class interests of billionaires are fundamentally opposed to climate justice. Until they and the politicians who support them are willing to betray those interests, climate conferences are mere theatre m.independent.ie/opinion/comm...
Serious Guys’ desire for approval has them support anything the neoliberal consensus demands: abolishing neutrality and embracing EU militarisation; financialising the housing market; basing our economy on the tax receipts of a handful of US corporations.

Conor Pope argues that an air-travel tax would be unfair.
We would like to remind him that the vast majority of people on Earth will never take a flight. It is a wealthy minority (read: us) who pollute, while others around the world bear the consequences.
So we ask: is that fair, Conor?
"[Opposition to aviation taxes] is not to downplay the existential crisis we face, or to deny the urgent need for more climate action." - Conor Pope @irishtimes.com Of course, he then *fails to offer a single alternative suggestion* to mitigate aviation emissions.😱

Worth a read to understand the facts
"[T]rying to read votes covered in overt racism and ones that wrote-in Elvis Presley as making the same political point is simply not a credible narrative. And it shouldn't be given any credibility just because the people who want to make it do so standing on top of their very large handbags." ✅️
October in Ireland.
Apples from New Zealand.
Our food system is completely broken.
We could grow these ourselves, but instead, we ship them 18,000 km.
If we can’t grow and eat what’s in season here, how can we talk about food security?
So ... big test of EU credibility on #ClimateAction coming up?

100% .. thank you so much for those efforts..
#RTÉPrimeTime interviewers bemoan the difficulty of finding "new" questions for presidential debate. Um ... #climate? #biodiversity? #disinformation? Just for examples... 🤦♂️
I'm heart broken Ireland's national broadcaster stuck to same old 7 questions tonight on #áras25 presidential debate & avoided the climate question several of us begged them to ask. We learned nothing new of candidates' positions on major global/national challenges. RTE has failed the public.

Good information on Irish Neutrality and risks it will be lost here www.uplift.ie/neutrality-f...
I'm utterly gobsmacked at how much this article misrepresents our research and our position. This follows personal communication which should have clarified any of these misinterpretations.
Jeremy Clarkson article that says if you can't sort out your teeth you can't sort out the country.
I've got lots of things to say about Jeremy Clarkson.
Really not worth it. He knows his game is over and so is resorting to personal attacks.
Piss him off instead and
