I have a problem with many activists- those who go on about social justice such as socialists often ignore environmental issues, likewise Greens and environmentalists tend to think social justice issues aren't that important- they are after all usually middle class..... When will we realise these are inseparable?. You cannot bring about real environmental change without creating more equality around the world- the rich have a huge environmental footprint and the poor when desperate destroy the environment also (though not at all on the same scale) eg burning down the rainforest since feeding their families comes first. |

Jump To Comment: 1There's more cultural history to Galway than many realise.
With all the talk just now about the Hill of Tara (which is absolutely necessary and extremely good of course), it would be all too easy to gloss over the Hill of Turoe area, and the planned new toll road (N6 Upgrade) that's scheduled to destructively plough right through the middle of it all - for no good reason whatsoever.
How many Irish people (at the present time) I wonder know about the powerful ancient Celtic links between the Turoe area of Galway and mainland Europe - as shown photographically at http://www.handofhistory.com/photos/thumbnails.php?album=1 ?
