DDR E.015 - Green Party Legacy: A Movement Betrayed

Turning Earth

Eamonn Ryan, while leader of the Green Party, introduced a new energy policy which effectively reversed the ban on LNG and fracked gas imports. The Greens, while still in government, are denying responsibility for this betrayal of the environmental movement in Ireland. Listen to activists from the grassroots movement explain what is happening. We are joined by Eddie Mitchell, a Leitrim county councilor and activist with Love Leitrim; Dianne Little, an anti-fracking activist from Co. Fermanagh; and Eoghan Harris, of Future Generations Kerry.
