We meet Ellen Hegarty, a Climate Ambassador with An Taisce, who shows us how local environmental actions can make our communities healthier and contribute globally to fighting climate change. Lots of small environmental actions, have a big impact!

It’s Cabra Climate Con day! An Taisce Climate Ambassador Ellen Hegarty leads local kids and environmental experts. Ellen stresses the urgency of climate change, followed by Caitriona Kenny from Connecting Cabra, who highlights the impact of local actions. Six schools then meet experts to start working on their environmental projects.

The kids reveal their chosen projects at the Climate Convention. Under themes like Biodiversity, Waste, Energy, and more, each school shares their focus for the next six months. One school will even organize an eco-friendly event. Plus, we learn how excess greenhouse gases are causing global warming and extreme weather.

In today’s show, Christ the King Girls School in Cabra meets Éanna Gallagher, a community water officer, and Averil Rafferty, an expert in the circular economy, at the Rediscovery Centre in Ballymun. They’re planning to eliminate single-use plastic bottles at school. Check out RTÉ Learn for tips to do the same in your school.

The kids from Gaelscoil Bharra take on the role of "Energy Detectives" as they use the Home Energy Saving Kit to uncover where their school is using—and losing—the most energy. Want to become an energy detective too? You can borrow the kit for free from your local library! Visit RTÉ Learn for all the details.

In today’s episode, the boys from Christ the King Boys School take on the exciting challenge of organising an eco-friendly end-of-series event at Bohemians Football Club. With a mission to make it as green as possible, the excitement is through the roof—especially since they (and their families) are die-hard Bohs fans!

In today’s episode, the girls from St. Catherine’s Senior School launch their Food Waste projects with help from expert Michelle Darmody. They set two goals: reduce waste in school lunches and at home. The girls create a comic strip with tips and plan a survey, plus, learn to make smoothies from leftover fruit and veggies!

The boys at St. Finbarr’s School Cabra are excited to begin their biodiversity projects. After learning how vital ponds are, they plan to build one on their school grounds! They also start creating more space for nature to help fight climate change—an action we can all take.

The students from Broombridge Educate Together explore how to set up a walking or cycling bus at their school to encourage more active and eco-friendly travel. Why not try it in your own school? Head over to RTÉ Learn to download the survey students used to kickstart their initiative. Let's get moving and make school travel fun and sustainable!

In today’s show, the Gaelscoil Bharra kids met with our climate experts to discuss reducing energy through Active Travel—getting more kids and parents out of cars! Local councillor Declan Meenagh also joins to tackle barriers to walking and cycling, and they plan real-world changes to promote active travel.
