"Damage to peat bogs is now producing the equivalent of over a tenth of total global fossil-fuel emissions."
This is a truly frightening statistic. A practical campaigning point: it would be useful if the source could be added, or given, as it's always useful to have that sort of info when arguing in local campaigns.
'Sure you can tell the kids nawthin''. Then I copped myself on. 'Who am I to be telling the kids anything!' Mask on, action on, my lovely friends!
Why when involved in such an action do people feel the need to mask up?
The action is great and one to be proud of, so why if people are prepared to get involved in the action do people feel the need to mask up? To me it takes from things.
Other than that keep on keepin on!
The plant burns milled peat, which is obtained from the surrounding bogs, which cover 5,500 hectares (13,500 acres).
Around one million tonnes of peat is used annually.
The peat fire they burn in the protest a fraction of what is burnt every minute at the plant,not a contradiction but a statement.
Very Brave.
Great video.
Hope you have a great week. Hats off to all who organised the event, the first in Ireland.
What are ye burning? Seems like a bit of a contradiction. Great music by the way- who is it?
