Good. Our impact on climate change is so minimal to be almost negligible. Critical infrastructure for the population we have is far more important

The simple fact is that the current rules allow *all* projects to be semi-permanently delayed by malicious actors.
They don’t actually give a flying fuck about the lesser-spotted natterjack, they just don’t want turbines within 100km of their house because reasons.
Ireland is currently stuck burning fossil fuels (now very *expensive* fossil fuels) because all of the major wind turbine, solar and grid projects are constantly held back for years.
This law will prevent such projects from being maliciously blocked. They still have to comply with all other laws, and they still have to be important enough to be declared as critical infrastructure by the Government, however.

So much for the climate emergency. Almost like the government just say and do whatever suits at whatever particular time.

Fantastic news.
Just look at the much needed A5 project up North, and how it was torpedoed by Stromont’s own climate legislation.
Those who brought about the climate complaint? A notable anti A5 group – with malicious intent.

This is what all those years of articles blaming NIMBY people has lead to. Turning us against each other for decades so that now the people of Ireland will have no say over what is built or not.
Are the people right or wrong to object to this or that? Doesn’t matter anymore. The friends of Israel party knows what is best for us.
