Shifting baseline syndrome explains how we normalise the continual visceration of once unimaginably rich ecosystems. Rewilding – our minds, lands, and seas – is the solution. 🌏

Already very windy in #WestCork. Need to separate Cork county into east and west for weather warnings. The western seaboard northwards from Kerry has a yellow warning in place for later today. Looks like West Cork has an amazing wind break on the Met Éireann map!

#Ecocide happening on our watch. No Yellowhammers visiting our bird feeders this winter. Previously we’ve had up to twelve. Sadly my prediction of 2021 came true - dairy desert, removal of over-winter stubble have decimated this #WestCork Yellowhammer population. Micheál Martin

Love is definitely a pointy nose kiss. Thank you, Emma and team Galway SPCA for connecting us back in 2018. He was a bit #littler then! So many sighthounds are in rescue centres looking for homes. They make the most wonderful companions. #AdoptDontShop #HappyNewYear

I just signed this petition calling for proper signage and maintenance of St Brigid's Way. Will you sign too? my.uplift.ie/petitions/we-h… via @UpliftIRL

Poisonous products used on pets are contributing to nestling mortality. Stop using these dangerous chemicals. There are natural alternatives.

We are all a part of Nature, NOT apart from Nature. Nature is Home💚 #WestCork

Water overflowing from a blocked drain combined with a field left bare overwinter after onion harvest = appalling loss of top soil + silted water downstream. Healthy soil and clean water are essential to life. Farmland needs regeneration, not overproduction + poisoning. #WestCork

Rainwater pouring off the fields. Taking top soil and slurry with it. Polluting streams and rivers, damaging roads, causing flooding downstream. This is where hedgerows should be allowed to grow, trees should be planted. Allow wet land and flood plains to do their job. #WestCork

Senior county camogie stars once again treated with disrespect. Committed elite athletes having to change in tiny changing rooms, no hot water for showers afterwards, no dinner after a match. #EqualityInSport Kilkenny Camogie The Camogie Association Kilkenny GAA The GAA RTÉ Sport

Congratulations to Kilkenny Camogie. Leinster Champions 2025.
