Or instead of buying the podcast a coffee this week, consider donating to support Palestinians under siege in Gaza: Oxfam , Medicins Sans Frontières and other charities are working hard to help.

Although 70% of Irish people are worried about climate change, many struggle to talk about it which is why here at The Climate Alarm Clock, we're inviting some guests along to the pod! People who aren’t necessarily known for talking about climate change in an effort to expand the conversation, and first up is the fantastic Andrea Horan!

Andrea is co-founder of Tropical Popical, the culture campaigner behind the No More Hotels movement and involved in the Repeal the Eighth campaign, as well as host on the @UnitedIrelandPodcast and Don’t Stop Repealin’ podcasts.

We chatted with Andrea about the recent floods in Ireland with Newry, Wexford, Louth under water this week.

We also cover why Teagasc recently got themselves into some hot water over their support for the Dublin Declaration!
