I want to be like Leonore Gewessler - the most brave Envi Minister ever! Despite facing opposition in her own country - #Austria , she decided to support #NatureRestorationLaw! 👏 We will see if it is enough, but nevertheless this act of courage moved me 💚



Here’s the letter myself & Malcolm Noonan drafted, which was signed by 10 Ministers to try & get the #NatureRestorationLaw back on the agenda today. It worked, thanks also to support from Irish & European NGOs. Irish Enviro Network European Environmental Bureau WWF EU



Ministers Malcolm Noonan Darragh O'Brien, thousands of frustrated & concerned Irish citizens have emailed you asking; "Where's my bill?" Life in our seas as we know it is in your hands. We need you to publish the Marine Protected Areas Bill. only.one/act/ministers-… #FairSeas

Honoured to meet President of Ireland Michael D Higgins & Sabina Higgins today at Áras an Uachtaráin. Celebrating the wonderful groups working to on #SDG14 Life Below Water🙏 We also made sure the president was aware of the serious delays to 🇮🇪’s Marine Protected Areas 🌊👀 #FairSeas



Government failed to publish the Marine Protected Areas Bill before summer 💔🌊 Meaning months of delay for crucial laws to safeguard our seas, support communities & ensure renewables are developed without harm to marine nature. fairseas.ie/2024/07/11/fai… #FairSeas Wind Energy Ireland

Great to bump into Fair Seas in Leinster House as they set out their manifesto for the protection, conservation and management of our marine waters. We’re working hard to get our MPA legislation across the line, it's a key priority for Green Party Ireland and Roderic O’Gorman TD.

Happy Irish Sea Day! Today we are celebrating marine life and the connectivity of our Irish Sea with Fair Seas , NI Marine Task Force & Ulster Wildlife. Cross border collaboration is needed to effectively protect these important ecosystems. #IrishSeaDay #OneIrishSea
