Range anxiety is an expression that most people hadn’t considered until the last number of years but it’s becoming more and more of an issue for users of electric cars.

It’s a technology that’s been used to reduce theft of catalytic convertors, but now, SmartWater has been used in the UK to help keep women safe.

The forensic liquid, which only shows up under ultraviolet light, stays on skin for up to six weeks and on clothes for much longer.

When spotted, it links the perpetrator to a specific batch of water that was sprayed and it is said, that its use has reduced the amount of catalytic convertor theft by half.

Now UK police have been trialing its use for helping women’s safety. Over 200 women were given their own package which included the water, a gel for door handles, and a trap that sprays the liquid if someone approaches the house.

While the anecdotal evidence has reported women feeling safer, it has also led to a prosecution.

Speaking to Dermot and Dave, Rachael Oakley from SmartWater explained the result of the UK trial, and the benefits to women all over the UK and beyond.

They're certainly distinctive and now, Irish people are being encouraged to keep their eyes peeled for the ring-necked parakeet.

[audio mp3="https://media.radiocms.net/uploads/2022/02/21120959/NiallHatch_Parakeet_2102.mp3"][/audio]

Birdwatch Ireland have been informed of a number of sightings of the bird in Dublin's Griffith Park, and are now hoping to find out how many are in the wild.

The parakeet, while originally from parts of Africa and Asia, have spread around Europe and now can be found as close as the Netherlands and the UK.

However, as an invasive species, they could cause problems for native Irish birds as well as for farmers and other food growers.

Speaking to Dermot and Dave, Niall Hatch from Birdwatch Ireland explained where they could have come from, the problems they could cause and what to do if you spot one.
