Europe’s heatwave is not showing signs of breaking. We can no longer debate whether or not to make drastic changes. Paris’ Place de Catalogne is a perfect example of how heat-generating asphalt road space can be replaced with an urban forest for water capture, shade and cooling.

I can see a future court asking a simple question. Why when we knew what had to be done, and we had the finances and analysis in place, we still decided to shirk our responsibility? In such circumstances, I don’t believe we would have a credible defence. irishtimes.com/opinion/2025/0…

Tomorrow marks the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica Genocide when 8372 men and boys were massacred. Today, the Dáil marked this with a minutes silence, and welcomed many members of our Bosnian community to Leinster House 🇧🇦 🇮🇪

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.” “Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” grist.org/biking/one-mil…

We need a political system that plans for decades, not just for the next election. A Future Generations Commissioner would help us do that: scrutinising Govt. decisions, and holding Departments accountable for the long-term consequences of their actions. independent.ie/irish-news/gov…

"Everywhere you go in London you see people on bikes, and every visit I return I can't believe how many more bike riders there are." Streetfilms (Now 1,118+ films!) Bicycles now outnumber cars in London. 🤯 (link below)

Delft Station has become a joy the senses with the addition of several big planter beds on its north side. What was once an unwelcoming hard space to move through quickly is now a place that invites people to stay, enjoy a social or quiet moment, and even watch the bees at work.

Yesterday I joined my colleague Caroline Conroy who has been working on the craftivist blanket for Palestine. It commemorates the thousands of children killed in Gaza 🇵🇸

If we want effective local government, we have to have the courage to fund it properly. If we cut every source of local funds while looking for supplemental funds from central government, we are giving them the power to decide what we do in the city.

Strong local government needs local fundraising. Dublin badly needs investment and councillors can't sit around expecting investment to happen while giving tax cuts for twelve years in a row.

This is what all the fuss is about. You see that little grey area between Ireland, UK and EU nationals in the chart? That's the fuss. I can remember when EU migration was the fuss too. >20% of construction workers are non-nationals >25% of hotel/food staff >33% of IT workers

irishcycle.com/2025/07/19/min… More reporting on the dilution of the speedlimit measures that were introduced to much fanfare last year. The devil is in the details. As 'default' changes revert to giving more discretion to the councillors you are going to end up with higher speeds.1/2

Stop this Genocide Now! No amount of rain would stop me and the massive turnout yesterday for the Palestine protest in Cork. We will not stop marching. We will not stop the fight. It was great meeting with Mick Finn. Thank you all for braving the heavy rain.

Paris is going green — fast. In 15 years, air pollution's been cut in half, parking spots replaced with trees and parks, and streets turned into bike- and pedestrian-friendly spaces. If cars go, urban forests can grow. 🌿 More via Scape: uitgeverijblauwdruk.nl/tijdschriften/…
