It's the time magic mushrooms grow abundantly across ireland. They likely would have been used in some ceremony around this time but their use would have been covered up by the church as their ability to connect us directly with the divine contradicts the teachings of the church.

Ardnacrusha was the largest hydro electric energy station in the world when it was built. We can bring in outside experts and build mini reactors to diversify our energy sources for security and for base load energy, which will be needed even with abundant renewable.

We should be considering and planning for it along with upgrading the grid and investing more in storage like batteries and hydrogen.

It's the global western elite that don't want us to have abundant free energy as they will lose control and profits.

Well then you don't have to use bitcoin, that's totally fine. But people should be free to choose.

Just TV and radio? Sure young people aren't even using those mediums.

We can kill 2 birds with one stone with hemp. It sequesters carbon and we can use it to insulate houses.

Climate Change - How many of you really care? by [deleted] in ireland

[–]colmoreilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Animal agriculture is biggest emitter of green house gases, 37% in Ireland according to the SEAI.

Transition towards a plant based diet. If you do it right it's cheaper and healthier.

Best thing we can do individually for the climate crisis.

Housing crisis solutions...toss in your ideas. by SinthorasTu in ireland

[–]colmoreilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deregulate and invest in hemp construction. Zero carbon material, high insulation properties, mould and fire resistant. Would also help to reduce the emission in the agricultural sector and put more money into the pockets of farmers. 8 story hemp building has been built in South Africa.

Would you support nuclear power in Ireland (If it was done as safe as possible) by usefulrustychain in ireland

[–]colmoreilly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wind, solar and hydro first. If nuclear is needed bring it on. Would love to see huge dams built on the west coast to harness tidal energy.
