Join our free ‘Data Centres and Energy Demand’

Join our free ‘Data Centres and Energy Demand’ webinar on 11 March. This webinar will examine the topic of data centres and what part they might play in our society, highlighting their social, environmental and economic impacts. Speakers include: Patrick Bresnihan, Lecturer in Geography, Maynooth University, Phoebe Duvall, Planning and Environmental Policy Officer, An Taisce, and Ian Bitterlin, Consulting Engineer and formerly Visiting Professor at the University of Leeds.

Key questions will be explored including: What data is stored in data centres? Could they be more efficient? Do we need them and how should they be powered?

***WEBINAR*** LINK IN BIO*** NHNA is delighted to $***WEBINAR*** LINK IN BIO*** NHNA is delighted to invite you to the first of a series of climate-related webinars. Next Thursday, we'll be exploring Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) infrastructure projects planned for Ireland; why they should be stopped; the debate on energy security and what politicians and the public can do to take action and prevent further fossil fuel infrastructure. We are delighted to be joined by speakers Prof. Barry McMullin (School of Electronic Engineering, DCU) and Frida Kieninger (Food & Water Europe campaign officer working on a ban on fracking in Europe), as well as members of NHNA. Attendees will come away with a stronger understanding of why LNG should not be part of Ireland's energy mix, and the importance of legislating to prevent the construction of LNG terminals in Ireland. Please register to receive the zoom link (registration link in bio). The webinar is free and will take place on the 4th of February from 7-8:15pm.$

Check out our emissions calculations which show that if 5 LNG terminals were built in Ireland it would result in the same CO2e emissions as 12 Moneypoint Coal Power Plants 💨💨💨💨😱😱😱😱😱

It's time to legistate and ban the construction of all LNG terminals now 🛑🛑🛑. LNG is a bridge fuel to #climatebreakdown.

As the year draws to a close we want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and all the best for 2021. This year has been a challenging one for all, sometimes it felt like one big zoom meeting. Gone was the post meeting/demo unwind catch-ups over a pint or tea which we all missed dearly. 2021 brings a new year and as we countinely build the movement in Ireland to #BreakFreeFromFossilFuels and working for a just transition for all communities both here and globally. Look after yourselves, get some rest, be kind and compassionate to you and others and of course have some bants. Catch you all in the new year. 🤶🎅☃️🎄🎁🛷

Today we handed over our petition and civil society letter to @eamondryan Parliamentary Assistant
Cllr Claire Byrne. We are asking him to legislate for the #ClimateEmergencyBill and continue his support and promise to #KeepItInTheGround and #PassTheBill. #BreakFreeFromFossilFuels 🛢️🛑🖐️🤝🙌 💚🌍

🚨@eamondryan , support the passing of the Climate Emergency Bill 🚨

It's time to shut the door on oil and gas drilling in Irish waters for good.

This bill will stop any new licences and halt the 34 existing licences before they get to the extraction phase.

We need YOUR support to send a message to Minister Ryan that Ireland says NO to Offshore Drilling.

🌟If your group would like to show support, DM us for a link to our civil society letter.

Cut-off to sign both is midnight tomorrow ⌛.

RIP #FikileNtshangase, who was brutally murdered in front of her grandson last Thursday after bravely leading resistance against the expansion of a coalmine near her home. Our deepest condolences to her family & those of the hundreds of activists killed for defending their land from the #fossilfuel industry. We demand that @CyrilRamaphosa do everything possible to bring her murderers to justice. #defendthedefenders

What happened to #keepitintheground @eamondryan? Last week the Minister said we don't need "legislative underpinning" on offshore drilling. But legislation is ESSENTIAL. Without it, if the government falls it's right back to drill baby drill.

As Eamon Ryan says in this video, legislation banning fossil fuel exploration would show global climate leadership, clearly signalling to the industry that the future is #fossifree:

Use our doc at https://tinyurl.com/y6y6otwe to help you have your say before 5pm on Friday 28th August on #PippaHacketts #forestry Bill which will restrict #accesstojustice on environmental decision making when we need it most. As the climate and biodiversity crises intensify, the government should be working to support access to justice and public participation in decisions which are crucial to our shared future, rather than further restrict it, which the current version of the Agriculture Appeals (Amendment) Bill will ultimately serve to do.

On #WorldOceansDay2020 it's time to #ditchthedrills! Offshore drilling for #fossilfuels has devastating impacts on marine life, from tiny plankton to large marine animals like whales and dolphins. Currently there are over 35 licences allowing companies to conduct exploration activity like exploratory drilling and seismic testing off the Irish coast, particularly off the coast of Cork and Kerry. We need the Irish goverment to place an immediate moratorium on ALL fossil fuel exploration activity in Irish waters.
Huge thanks to our allies @extinctionrebellionwestcork for their help with the action!

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has been promoted as a $Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has been promoted as a “clean” fuel that will complement Ireland’s energy mix, but in fact LNG is a climate and human rights disaster. Two LNG import terminals are planned for Ireland in Cork Harbour and Tarbert, Co. Kerry, which would import fracked gas from the US. What impacts will these projects have on communities at the other end of the supply chain in the US? In this unique webinar we take a look at both sides of the toxic LNG supply chain, revealing the health and environmental impacts the LNG promoters fail to disclose. We will hear from community representatives from Texas, Pennsylvania and Kerry. USA: Leann Leiter - Earthworks Patrick Anderson - SAVE RGV from LNG Ireland: Johnny McElligott - Safety Before LNG Dr Sadhbh Lee - Irish Doctors for the Environment- IDE Our speakers will share their experiences of fighting LNG projects, followed by a Q&A. This event will take place over Zoom. Please register for FREE through the Action Network tickets link and you will be sent the link on the day of the webinar. #stopcorklng #stoprgvlng #stopshannonlng #stopgibbstownlng$

Have you seen our fossil fuel map of Ireland yet? $Have you seen our fossil fuel map of Ireland yet? Renewables are generating more and more of our energy but we are a long way from a #fossilfree Ireland. Although we know we have to keep fossil fuels in the ground to stop the worst effects of climate change but the government and private companies are still planning new fossil fuel projects. The detailed map available on our website shows all of the current and potential fossil fuel projects in Ireland, including offshore oil and gas, LNG importation, peat and gas-fired power plants, fracking licences in Northern Ireland and proposed new gas infrastructure.
