For the 2nd year in a row, the Schools Climate and nature Summit offers all children in Primary and Secondary an opportunity to make friends and start climate awareness and action. It takes place in tandem with COP27. We met some of the children and teachers taking part.
October saw the coming together of Irelands’ first ever Children and Young People’s Assembly on Biodiversity Loss, and Ecolution was lucky enough to follow their journey. We meet some of the children selected, their mentors and TD Malcolm Noonan.
Birds are one of the most visible, and audible members of the biosphere that surround us. But they are in serious trouble. We spoke to Niamh Fitzgerald of Birdwatch Ireland, Birders in Kilkenny and kids across the country to see why they’re in decline and ask what we can do to help.
Today we meet Donal Griffin, marine policy officer for Fair Seas Ireland and Sibéal Regan of the Irish Whale and Dolphin Group to shine a light on the creatures large and small that call Irish waters home. Plus, youth IWDG member Alissa hops on a boat out of Baltimore in Cork to see what she can spot on a whale watching expedition.
It’s Green Schools Walk to School Week and last Monday, 150 young people from 10 to 24 gathered as part of the Walk21 IrelandConference. They met to help shape communities of the future, places where walking and active travel is safer for all. And we walked with them.
Evie, along with fellow young people Paddy, Frank, Nora, Rosa, Tom, and willing accomplice Derek spent a morning at IMMA seeing The Anthropocene exhibition, guided by Mark Maguire, Assistant Curator for Schools and Family at IMMA to see what happens when Art meets the Climate Crisis.
This one is all about Energy. Sarah O’Rourke of Eirgrid discusses Ireland’s present and future. John O’Shea of Codema talks Dublin’s low-carbon transition. And, Donal Gallagher of Asylum Productions tells us about the Callan Energy Store an exercise in Creative Climate Action. Plus our Brain Trust.
What happens when you watch videos, stream a movie or play online, and how could it be having an impact on our environment? Artist Joana Moll has been asking just these questions.

This is so good! We love to get out into the forest and enjoy some quiet time, but alas I think we might just be bringing the noise with us ha
