Do Irish people know that Ireland has been selected as a Green sacrifice song for the so-called green technology, renewable energy transition from the beautiful wilds of Clare, Wicklow and Leitrim to the outstanding natural beauty of the Sperrin mountains of Tyrone. Rural Ireland is on Big Mining's chopping block.
This podcast is about the power of community, about how communities of Ireland are organizing to stop this disaster happening. For short term returns, the government wants to sell iron to mining interests as silently and quietly as possible. Let's make some noises. We will try to unravel why the Irish government is doing this.

What’s it like to live with mining? Since the 1990s, Pat and Nuala Geoghegan, their family, neighbours, animals and environment in county Limerick, have suffered the consequences. We’ll hear their tragic yet defiant story later in the episode. Geraldine Ward, her family and neighbors have lived for generations with impacts of mining. Geraldine is a housewife, spokeswoman and vice chairperson for the Drumgossatt / Knocknacran residence group in County Monaghan.
