Brazil already plans to add the equivalent of four Irish national herds to its own present number of cattle by 2030. Reducing the number of Irish cattle will make absolutely no difference, none whatever, to the climate.

Irish climate policy is not, and never has been, about doing anything to change the climate. Because that is not possible. Irish climate policy is about a national donning of sackcloth and ashes to do penance for the climate, without making any impact on it at all.

In 2020 the Irish wildlife trust sold agricultural land for the sum of€580000. I would like to know why they did not rewild this? Also it's believed it was sold to a dairy farmer! This is an unbelievable show of hypocrisy. Any comment Eoghan Daltun 🌍 Pádraic Fogarty

First of the season!.. cow calved last night and was flying it all day until Sensehub alerted me to a drop in intake and activity.. she was only starting to wobble a small bit when I came on her so with two bottles of calcium and a mag she should be fine. Over-conditioned id say.
