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.
Today, we visit another Biosphere Reserve, this time in the Maldives. At Finolhu Baa Atoll, Marine Biologist Filipa might have the best job in the world. Here she discusses life below the waves and in particular the endangered Manta Ray. Plus, Brain Trustee Rosa shares her love of the sea.
We head to Bull Island to discuss the Dublin Bay Biosphere with Dean Eaton, Ecologist Pat Corcoran, Niamh Fitzgerald of Birdwatch Ireland and the Scouts of 5th Port Dollymount, the first people in the world to complete the Dublin Bay Biosphere Award.
Just before Covid we visited Ireland’s first Democratic School to see how they’re changing the way they learn, to fit the world we’ve made. And there we conducted a guided exercise with Kathryn McCabe in coping with Eco Anxiety.
In this episode from way back in December 2019, we joined four inner-city schools visiting Belvedere College to see if they can bring gardens fed by fish into their classrooms.

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
