    The words ‘2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine’ seem to be absent from the article and Ruffalo’s comments?

    Good pragmatic response from the Greens there, to be fair.

    I used to really like Mark ruffalo, he’s a talented actor but he has disappeared so far up his own hole, Bono probably finds him insufferable

    What is going on with these famous people sprouting all sorts of white they know absolutely nothing about these days?

  7. From the article:
    “The Green Party remains fully opposed to a commercial LNG facility and is proud that no such facility has proceeded during our time in Government. Mark Ruffalo’s video gives a very misleading account of what is envisaged in the amendment to the Planning Bill.”
    The party said that while Ireland’s long-term energy future is in renewable energy, “we may need a strategic gas reserve as a back-up in case supply is interrupted for any reason through the existing pipeline from the UK that supplies the majority of our gas”.“If this were to occur, it would leave Ireland seriously exposed without the power and heat supply we need.“What the amendment allows for is the possibility of a State-owned, floating off-shore gas reserve that could provide such a back-up supply in such an eventuality. It would be temporary in nature, would have to operate under strict climate limits and could not contain gas from fracked sources. It would not be a commercial facility.

    The Green Party pointed to the Government’s Energy Security Strategy that highlighted the need for “gas reserve as a back-up” while moving in the direction of a renewable energy based power system.

    They said Ireland could be “seriously exposed without the power and heat supply we need” if there was a break in the existing gas pipeline from Britain.

    “What the amendment allows for is the possibility of a State-owned, floating off-shore gas reserve that could provide such a back-up supply in such an eventuality,” the spokesperson said.

    “It would be temporary in nature, would have to operate under strict climate limits and could not contain gas from fracked sources. It would not be a commercial facility. That is the only reason for this amendment,” he added.
