"Science is crystal clear here. Our only chance to recover back to a stable and safe climate is to accelerate the phase-out of fossil-fuels, remove carbon and invest in nature (...), and do that without trading off between them."

Brilliant evening at #Kerry museum in Tralee to launch new podcast on #Maharees. Have a listen if interested in #resilience, coastal communities tackling challenges of #climatechange through artistic practice or just exploring a stunning part of #Ireland

So, Im a bit of a #fantasy fan, thought I'd look for treasures by favourite authors, found some @refeist.bsky.social, @tadwilliams.bsky.social ... when I looked for @robinhobb.bsky.social this threw me! Weirdly German edition of Hobb's Tawny Man seems to use artwork from William's Dragonbone Chair!

Seven hours in 30 seconds: time-lapse of #StormAmy in wild West Kerry. Hard to tell #MountBrandon exists! Unfortunately the camera just doesn't do justice to the rainfall and spray blowing from the sea. Plenty of seaweed on the other window from earlier! #speirgorm

My great great granduncle opened Spillane's Bar in #Maharees on the #DinglePeninsula in 1875, and it's been in my family since.
Incredibly proud of all my parents did with it and how my sister is carrying on the tradition ❤️

Had an unexpected hitchhiker today - a green lacewing. Such a lovely iridescent green, just thinking I should have captured her contrast with my purple Renault Zoe! Taking pleasure in the little things when the big thing seem so broken! #speirgorm #biodiversity #natureisbeautiful #wildatlanticway

Wet wet wet in West Kerry too 🌧 Finally starting to feel a little more human here after a few days of being knocked by covid, hoping I can get some work done today!

Looking forward to exploring how solar can be part of a just energy transition through my PhD research! Please feel free to share useful links/ contacts 🙂

I feel very lucky to have grown up here! My other half is a windsurfer - he can rig up in the garden and head out from there! He usually has it all to himself, though yesterday he had to share his space with a few others 😁
