Probably 1000 people have attended at least one but we've had a problem keeping contact with each other between gatherings. There are a scattering of email lists and web site from the different gatherings, some active and some silent. Now there is a new hub site http://grassroots.pageabode.com which attempts to gather all this in one place to improve communication. read full story / add a comment

This is the latest stage in the 8 yr saga of multinational waste management company Indaver and their efforts to construct two incinerators (a municipal and industrial one, now called Waste to Energy Facilities) at Ringaskiddy, Cork Harbour and the work of local group CHASE (Cork Harbour for a Safe Environment) to stop them. It is possibly the third oral hearing in this long drawn out, gruelling and horrendously complicated process. read full story / add a comment
