Notice to all Gannets: Please fly below 30 meters to avoid instant death resulting from offshore turbine blade collisions. Notice to all seabirds: Don't look or smile at photographers. It only encourages them to come closer. BirdWatch Ireland Coastal Concern Alliance irishtimes.com/environment/cl…

Prof of computer science, Apostolos Gerasoulis, confirms that without a doubt, offshore wind kills whales. Is this finding in time to save Irish cetaceans still relying on outdated noise impact guidelines for their safety?

Whale and dolphin group get involved in distance to shore debate which has nothing to do with them. Did they get another consultancy fee from the wind industry to write this crap? Sad to see. Kevin O'Sullivan Fair Seas Coastwatch Upfront with Katie Hannon iwdg.ie/offshore-wind-…

Italian government aligns with turbine manufacturer and developer aiming to produce wind turbines in Italy supporting the development of a 2.8GW floating wind project. This represents over half of Ireland's 2030 target. Now that's ambition! Shannon Foynes Port @MattShanahanTD


Oh look.....it's the non existent floating wind turbines which are 10 years away! Actually it looks like they're here now......just not in Ireland. Coastal Concern Alliance Blue Ireland @MattShanahanTD Wicklow Wildlife Welfare RTÉ Prime Time Fáilte Ireland Kevin O'Sullivan Dungarvan Tourism

Glad to see that the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation has stopped and restarted in the past. All will be well in time. Hopefully it will keep going until the November election 😁. Blue Ireland Coastal Concern Alliance @335kbikeshed Wicklow Wildlife Welfare irishtimes.com/opinion/2024/0…

Geophysical surveys ongoing just five miles off Tramore. Capable of causing temporary or permanent hearing damage in cetaceans. Energia have already completed this. Why are we doing it again? Coastwatch Tramore Eco Group Fair Seas @MattShanahanTD Kevin O'Sullivan

In a final betrayal of trust the Irish Government enable energy companies to build 175 massive turbines off the Waterford and Wexford coastlines. Shame on them. Coastwatch Kevin O'Sullivan @MattShanahanTD RTÉ News Catherine Connolly Coastal Concern Alliance Simon Harris TD


Playing to the crowd! 22GW of renewables when our national demand is only 7GW. What is all this energy for? Floating wind is a proven technology. Why build a test site and waste more time?

Offshore wind farms identified as a threat to our seabird populations. Our wildlife deserves proper independent ecological assessments conducted before any offshore development begins. Has not happened so far. Coastal Concern Alliance Wicklow Wildlife Welfare Coastwatch WaterfordBirdNews

ORESS 2.1 auction consultation for Area A (Tonn Nua) launched the same day as the public consultation was launched on the draft DMAP. You couldn't make it up! So much for 'have your say'... @WesleyFlannery Wicklow Wildlife Welfare Coastal Concern Alliance Catherine Connolly @MattShanahanTD
