Things Eamon Ryan wants us to do...

Not to destroy the planet.

In fairness to Ryan these are not his ideas, he is only following guidance from Davos. There is not.much he can do about it.

I expect Eamon wants our SM feeds to be vegan.

they don't! we actually pollute more than chinese people. also they're a factory for the west, if you have a problem with their pollution you should make sure not to buy any chinese products.

no BS about it, people moan about china but ireland/EU pollute far more per capita, EU is 500 million people nearly and china's biggest customer

I wonder would glass containers that can be recycled, paper from sustainably managed forests etc be good for it too (in terms of the businesses/jobs created in manufacturing and recycling etc) and help with the environment/reduce all kinds of waste/pollution

Or at least be neutral and just replace the plastic jobs...it is revolting how much plastic packaging and single use crap at that we produce as a species

There has to be a way to melt all this plastic into bricks and make houses out of it. The bricks could even be bulked up with ashes, rubble or other waste products. If you can turn waste plastic into houses you solve 2 massive problems.

I agree. I also believe the childish lampooning of Ryan comes from similar people.

Don't forget their two-tier motor tax system which devalued otherwise perfectly good cars overnight and encouraged the massive shift to diesel that this time round they've complained about so much and pushed people to buy EVs instead - hardly cheap or an environmentally sound option either considering the manufacturing/mining processes involved and again, scrapping/devaluing otherwise perfectly good cars!

Oh and he and his bunch of zealots are again propping up an unpopular Government while the fabric of the country crumbles around them because of problems they have proactively made worse - housing, immigration etc. Oh and Ryan has reduced our energy independence as well with the farce over the proposed LNG terminal. Let's not forget that these idiots only got 7% of the vote from those who bothered to turn out in the first place either.

None of this was a a suprise really after their performance last time!

try to care about the environment but that doesn't mean you or I have to vote for the Green Party. Find your own way to your God without being steered by pseudo-science dogma dictated to you by the Green Party and the local Archbishop Ryan.
