Final preparations underway here in Knockanore for tomorrow's school visit to our dairy farm. A group of local dairy farmers have combined to sponsor our local @kgkshamrocksgaa club with a "Sustainable Dairy" logo designed by @NDC_ie Milk compliments of @tirlan_

🤔🧐 …. There’s plenty in rural Ireland anyway!!!
Drove 150km up the motorway this glorious late summer’s evening; arrived home to notice there was not a solitary bug splash on the windscreen. Nothing. Nature is disappearing – right before our eyes, yet we’re barely even noticing

COPPER🧵redux. I live near one of the largest copper mines on earth (Kennecott Utah Copper - KUC). I helped manage a smaller copper mine for 8 years. Observation: Wind/Solar/Battery Proponents & ESG bean-counters are completely out of touch with copper mining & production.

The next time Ireland play England in any sport, the Ireland team might want to take the knee during England’s national anthem. Right around the line “long to reign over us”. Maybe then a proper ‘educated’ debate on the racist sins of imperialism can begin.

This has to be a parody at this point, Can't count for trees planted Can't count carbon in our soils Can't use AD or solar to offset We've been thrown into the swimming pool with our arms tied behind our back. And even at that some still aren't happy. – at West Meath, Ireland

The lunatics are running the asylum …..
The whole world is warming faster than the rest of the world, a brief thread of media headlines: Ireland:
The argument about agriculture not doing their ‘fair share’ really boils my pi…potatoes! Feel free to share with anyone who feels we’re trying to ‘weasel out’ of responsibility cragireland.com/post/what-is…

Dutch farmer airport blockade, nothing moving in or out. The world's mainstream media turns a blind eye. Luckily we don't need them anymore to see what's happening.
