We're worst in Europe at greenhouse emissions per person. We could be the best and must be the best for a better, more balanced & fairer world for all.
Great graphic. The scare mongering from the ‘we only care about our own pensions, not young’ from last week’s ’finance folk’ didn’t consider there is headroom. Now a stacked graph of new births: new jobs : new homes would be even more graphical on the Tory / Kildare St policies
Looking forward to this. First insta-question for anyone out there. Does anyone know how to add the USA to this?
This. And if Ireland only cottoned on ‘the key is in the energy supply. That’s the shovels equivalent to those chasing gold rush.’ And who’s got all the supply chain & finance for the renewables/energy? The most important trading partner for delivering to 2040. China.
And the corollary is that Wall Street still out there valuing US AI like it's a $5,000 espresso machine with a supposedly infinite potential market. Meanwhile China's already been handing out free Nespresso pods to anyone who'll have them
‘So why does Kilkenny (city) have the fastest supply of housing per person in the south east?’ Well, it’s like hurling. Comes down to Mindset. You either make it happen, watch it happen, don’t know it happening or get it happen to you. They make it happen in Kilkenny.’
Another fantastic weekend in Kilkenny for @kilkenomics - thanks so much to everyone involved. Was out biggest festival yet, and was a hoot. One of the many fascinating conversations, here chattingto the brilliant @kylascan ....podcast out later.👍
Why Ireland has high energy costs and why it’ll continue to have high energy costs / low SME & tech job growth / high inflation if it keeps with ‘gas centric’ policy choices. If it moved to community owned solar powering towns, with CHP? ‘Not policy. No plan. No infra.’
“According to data from Wood Mackenzie, by 2030 SMRs should generate power at $182 per megawatt hour compared with $133 per megawatt hour for conventional nuclear. Natural gas is expected to sit at $126 per megawatt hour, while onshore wind and solar, backed up by battery, are…
From the days in Unilever, Dave didn't "get" branding/channel mgmt nor online, nor understand new business models, nor supply chain, collaboration nor sustainability nor next gen leaders; it's why he was never going to ge top job @ Unilever. This is going to end badly for Diageo.
Jesus the boks are a different level. Man down and the French made to pay in Paris. Real test of where Ireland are at coming.
@albertdolan_ @LouisOHaraSF @PetefortheDail @SeanCanney as TDs in Galway’s East constituency I am sure you have seen this video. Could you please ensure these cretinous bully’s are identified, reported to the school and reported to @gardainfo.
Class. With many councillors killing off parishes or pumping cars first for the sake of the old lads in Concrete / Road ‘budgets’ for the benefit not of communities but the large listed US road / cement company. Chats. Walking. Cycling. Imagine if plans were young centred…

There is a reason most councillors & council executives in Ireland don’t want either live streaming OR measurement / metrics. Accountability & insight to mediocrity. Or ‘putting party over parish & communities.’ Waterford council didn’t want €25k to measure €8bn a yr.
THIS 👇 There's a reason why certain Councillors continuously oppose live streaming of meetings in Limerick Council.
You were elected by the citizens of Ireland to address the concerns of its citizens. Our priorities are housing, cost of living, health service, migration, climate change and new job opportunities. x.com/Europarl_EN/st…
What issues should be prioritised by the European Parliament? According to EU citizens, inflation, rising prices and the cost of living (41%), defence and security (34%), and the fight against poverty and social exclusion (31%) should come first
Of course its not an optional extra-We must protect ourselves & pay the protection money-The best in the business-with a proven record-particularly on the security of the EU’s vulnerable maritime infrastructure must surely be the Nordstream bombers-3% of GNP is a very small price
Gaeltachts are being killed by central ‘planning’ & NPF/councillors county plans Councillors vote for cities to get 3 times more supply per person pa than them. Gaeltachts being under inept Councils for ‘housing & Ec development’ kills by stealth Give Udaras Housing & Ec Devt
An 88 percent increase in the number of whole homes to rent in Gaeltacht areas on Airbnb – in just six years 'The history of the Gaeltachts as places of radical and forward thinking gets forgotten now when they've become a holiday destination,' say @CnaG ontheditch.com/airbnb-expansi…
Affordability. Simple as that. Can't afford to start a family until you have a house. Can't afford that till mid thirties. Can't have more then two kids in childcare. Can't afford to take time off in 30-40's to raise kids.
Ireland's first net zero retail store. Proving to pale stale males & planners "it can be done!" Well done Lidl, Kildare Coco (again, leading) for leading retail on showing Net Zero can be done & proving old men wrong. Lidl also do net zero homes in AU. linkedin.com/posts/shay-mcc…
Well done to @ClareCoCo @JamesBrowneTD @JoeCooneyTD for removing another big blockage put in place by planners/OPR, which stops population growth. Some LA’s see problems & ignore Ministers. @WaterfordCounci Clare TD’s & dept, in this instance, leading! clareecho.ie/cooneys-modula…
Instead of centralizing energy, use EV batteries to power homes during peak. Do it for rural (then lower need to ‘upgrade’ when the storms come). Partner with China & US for scale & finance / roll out But stop overcentralisation of energy as it’s costly & crippling.
The data center boom is the biggest driver of the surge in electricity demand — but it’s not the only cause. The inexorable rise of EVs is also spiking power demand. Right now, there are about 40 GW of EVs sitting in people’s driveways across the US, according to Apoorv…
Other countries mayors act on behalf of communities. Ireland has mayors that are utterly clueless on their districts and won’t say boo to a goose as scared of LA’s & Departments. ‘Governance gone wrong.’ Not a single token muni mayor asks communities for their priorities.
Vancouver region mayors unanimous on calling for repeal of Housing bills 44 and 47. Letter to follow. Meeting was Oct 17. The mayors don't hold back " The Province didn't know what they are doing, they did it anyway, some of it is irreversible" because you have just made land…

Here’s betting that unlike Waterford councillors & council exec (past & present), this will be widely welcomed by Tipp rather than kicked in the face by town clown councillors & ego’s.
