This is where I usually get the boat every Monday morning and Friday evening to go to school. There was no boat today.

#StormBrendan is not unique for the west of Ireland. But it is a reminder if what we face should we not act on the climate crisis.

(1/...) Warmer ocean temperatures leads to more intense winter storms (2-11% is a conservative estimate for wind speed increase). Rising sea level increases risk of flooding and means that where I was standing might well be in underwater in 20 years time. 48k without power in the West.

#ClimateStrike today @GretaThunberg. An old lady told us that we were breaking the law, told us to "to fucking move" and was incredibly aggressive. This was unpleasant, BUT it highlighted how lucky I am. There are strikers who face arrest or attack simply for speaking out (1/...) @MakichyanA @NlocyJ @howey_ou and SO MANY MORE incredibly brave people from indigenous communities and countries with repressive regimes deal with fear of real consequences every day. It may be unpleasant to be shouted at, but it highlights my privilege and how lucky we are(2/..)
