Let's Go Green with Aisling O'Rourke
Monday, 20 January 2025 - 50 minutes
This week on Let’s Go Green with Aisling O’Rourke on Midlands 103, we’re tackling key issues in sustainability and showcasing grassroots innovation.
Dr. Cara Augustenborg of the Climate Advisory Council and UCD joins me to dissect the Irish Government’s Programme for Government, focusing on its environmental commitments and policies. Together, we explore progress and challenges across sectors such as transport, education, and energy. From addressing climate change to enhancing biodiversity, we highlight the critical need for public understanding and political action to drive meaningful change.
I’m also joined by Nora Fahy of Roscommon Women’s Network to discuss their inspiring Cycle Up business. By upcycling waste fabric from charity shops, they create unique, one-of-a-kind items while promoting sustainability and creativity in the local community.
