The fines for the government's stubborn refusal to obey the law are running at a rate of €625 an hour. Equivalent to €6250 out of the public purse already today.

Today's Sunday Times highlights the difficulties many opponents, especially in rural areas, have in fighting wind farm proposals due to patchy internet connections & a ban on public meetings during Covid.
Migrating birds fly into a wind turbine this week in the Nation Rise power project near Crysler, ON. Multiple birds killed. @ONenvironment @nationvalleynws @ONresources @InOttValley @OttawaCitizen @KellyEganColumn
Earlier this week environmental groups, farmers, turf-cutters, fishing groups, renewable energy interests and the forestry industry met with @EU_ENV on the implementation of the Nature Directives (Habitats & Birds) in Ireland.

“The plan is to double the amount of onshore wind [generation].” (And to go large offshore). How many more families will be faced with abandoning their homes? No researchers looking into that afaics. It doesn’t pay? rte.ie/news/analysis-…
The impact of this scheme on biodiversity was also immeasurable. Excessive water abstraction is the key impact - with an astonishing 95.6% of the water being abstracted from the Lower River Shannon SAC yesterday. This severely impacts over 15km of Natura 2000 river.
Ireland’s first hydroelectric power station was opened in Ardnacrusha, Clare, 1929. The construction of the Station was the first major project undertaken by the Free State & its impact on the industrial development of the country was immeasurable. ⚡️#STEAM #EngineersWeek #1920s
Peter Sweetman I have an idea lets propose a windfarm in Phoenix Park and consult the same people. There are more environmental reasons against most that are built than there against one in the PP.

Destruction of riparian habitats - and destabilization of the river banks - along the River Doonbeg, Co Clare, yesterday. The rain today will wash all this soil into this Freshwater Pearl Mussel river. The last photo shows how this stretch used to look.
Fair play to the @irishexaminer for covering @Irishwildlife’s campaign to rid this country of the Arterial Drainage act, cause of horrific destruction since the 40’s. Whole river systems destroyed, future generations will look back in shame. irishexaminer.com/news/munster/a…
easy to overlook - and a little more complicated. Wind does cause annoyance, which does cause sleep disorders and other stress, which does impact health. very few developed places now allow turbines to be forced upon unwilling host communities.
