AS PART OF The Good Information Project this cycle, we’re taking a deep dive into the climate crisis in the lead-up to COP26, where world leaders will meet in Glasgow to negotiate new climate agreements.
Our Open Newsroom discussion asked what role Ireland and the EU will play in the talks, as well as providing answers to your climate questions.
We were joined by John Gibbons, an environmental journalist and commentator, who has been following the climate crisis for more than a decade.
Also on the call is Niall Sargent, an investigative journalist from Noteworthy.ie. Niall is an expert in environmental journalism and his recent work on biodiversity is essential reading.
From our team we had deputy editor Christine Bohan hosting with vital contributions from reporters Lauren Boland and Orla Dwyer.

Don’t agree. The future may be in better hands with young people like these. They have at least taken some action.

Fair play to them!
He became an activist after watching 1 film twice in 1 day?

Fools
at least they’re standing up for what they believe in and want to make the world a better place. It beats being silent or just moaning about.
Wonder who is providing the funding for this little venture. There’s more to this than meets the eye.
Properly some green nazi lobby that’s supporting Obama
Activist’s strike again! The culture has gone mad!
Lol they look like they want to destroy every bit of industry left in the world and play their play stations at the same time
Refreshing to see young people putting their energies into something positive even if it turns out to be a fruitless endeavour. They should be encouraged and applauded.
Climate change/Global warming is one of the biggest scams in the world. Its just another excuse for the elite to tax the life out of us now and for years to come. This is a pathetic story. How about exposing the hoax instead!
Would agree to a certain extent- I wouldnt say its the elite taxing the life out of us though. Its just another excuse for governments to earn tax!
I read an article recently saying that in the 1960′s there was 1,800 weather stations in the USA, By 1990 there was only 1,000, now its something like 700. The shut all the ones in hard to service areas, ie in the mountains etc, where it is colder. This is not factored in when comparing temperature avergages from the 1960′s or 1990′s to today. This may only be in the U.S that this has happened but alot of the global warming brigade use American figures…
Well thats a relief, can you show me where you heard this? I’d like some proof before I ignite an oil well In celebration.
oh dear god!
we are on the eve of destruction..anything that buys us a few more minutes is worth it
Omg this must be a late April fools joke!
Ever heard of the greenhouse effect??? More carbon in the atmosphere = warmer atmosphere
