I am happy to share a wonderful film that I produced. YouthINK are thrilled to announce the premiere of our new film Dance of the Cranes on the 15th of May Odeon Cinema Newbridge. This has been our largest and most complex project to date, involving over 50 young people.

Humanity is choosing to fail! We are doing virtually nothing to try and limit global warming to even 4°C. Let alone to 1.5°C. Methane concentrations are following the highest IPCC scenario, now at 1938 ppb.

The DAFM & EPA funded RePEAT project helped to update our knowledge of peat soils in Ireland. Unfortunately they did too good a job in finding peat soils so DAFM decided not to use the updated map to protect peat.
