A timely new report by climate scientists at the Irish Centre for High-End Computing (ICHEC) and funded by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Met Eireann and the Marine Institute addresses a research gap in previous regional climate projections for Ireland which showed large uncertainty for certain climate projections, such as precipitation. The Updated High-Resolution Climate Projections for Ireland increase confidence in climate projections for Ireland which, if realised, will impact Ireland's economy, society and environment in dramatic ways. Dr Paul Nolan, Climate Scientist, ICHEC lead author of the report said: "It is imperative that planners and policymakers are adequately informed about future climate change so that appropriate mitigation and adaptation measures can be implemented. This research will inform national policy and further our understanding of the impacts of climate change in Ireland at a local scale." Key Findings: What the Future Holds for Ireland's Climate The updated projections offer a clearer picture of the climate changes Ireland can expect. Below are some of the key findings of the report: Temperature: Near-surface temperatures are projected to rise by 0.5-0.7°C (2021-2050) under a low-emission scenario (SSP1-2.6), and by 2.4-3.0°C (2071-2100) under a high-emission scenario (SSP5-8.5), with the largest increases observed in eastern Ireland. Extreme Weather: Heatwaves are expected to become more frequent, while frost and ice days will decrease. The rainfall climate is projected to become more variable across extremes; both dry spells and extreme rainfall events will intensify. Precipitation: The rainfall climate will become more variable across the seasons. Winter and autumn months are projected to become wetter, while summer rainfall is expected to decrease by up to 8% by the end of the century. Snowfall: Snowfall is expected to decline sharply, with reductions of up to 84% by 2100 under the highest emissions scenario. Growing Seasons: The length of the growing season is projected to increase, benefiting agriculture with warmer soil temperatures and improved conditions for crop production. Energy: Wind energy potential is projected to decrease, particularly in summer, while photovoltaic power is expected to decline across all seasons. Heating Demand: With warmer winters, heating demand in Ireland is expected to decrease over the coming decades. What's new in the latest report? The research improves on previous research by simulating the future climate at a higher spatial resolution (4 km) using the most up-to-date regional climate models to downscale an ensemble of CMIP6 global datasets under the new SSP-RCP emission scenarios. An increased ensemble size of projections was completed which allows for a more accurate quantification of climate change uncertainty. For example, there is disagreement in the ensembles for projections of annual rainfall, so this projection is assigned lower confidence. Conversely, there is high agreement in the ensemble of temperature projections, and as such we assign high confidence to this projection. Furthermore, the current report provides projections for additional climate variables and derived metrics that are critically important to biodiversity and to key Irish sectors, including agriculture, health, energy and transport. The SSP-RCP scenario-based national projections are supplemented with global warming threshold (GWT) scenario projections. These alternative scenarios have garnered substantial interest since the 2015 Paris Agreement (a United Nations treaty in which 195 nations pledged to tackle climate change), which aims to limit global warming to "well below" 2°C by the end of the century, and "pursue efforts" to keep warming within the safer limit of 1.5°C (UN, 2015). For example, the projections under the "1.5°C GWT scenario" show projections over Ireland in a world that is 1.5°C warmer than the period 1850-1900 (Figure 5). Note that temperature pr...

New Tool to Help Organisations Track Progress on Diversity and Inclusion in Workplaces Launches

Organisations across Ireland have shown improvements of up to 10 per cent in fostering diverse and inclusive workplace cultures in the last two years, with the public sector making the most progress, showing an average sector improvement of 9.4 per cent. However, organisations need to do more to improve their workplaces for certain groups, including disabled people, people of different race, colour, nationality, ethnicity or ethnic origin, and people of different ages. That's according to a new Inclusion Score metric that quantifies the sense of belonging and culture of inclusion within an organisation being launched by the Irish Centre for Diversity, a nationwide body headquartered in Waterford that works with public and private organisations in Ireland to help them embed diverse and inclusive workplace cultures. An organisation's Inclusion Score is calculated based on diversity and inclusion (D&I) benchmarking data gathered by the Irish Centre for Diversity. The details have been compiled from more than 130 organisations across Ireland that between them employ more than 120,000 people across both the public and private sectors. The data is updated every 12 months. According to the latest findings from the Irish Centre for Diversity, the national average Inclusion Score is 78 per cent, with the insurance sector having the highest average of 81.7 per cent. Other sectors showing high Inclusion Scores include IT and technology, with 80.8 per cent, and construction and engineering, with an average of 79.5 per cent. The average Inclusion Score for the public sector is 71.1 per cent. The latest findings also reveal the top three groups that workers think their organisation needs to focus further on as being disabled people (17.8 per cent); people of different race, colour, nationality, ethnicity or ethnic origin (16.1 per cent); and people of different ages (11.3 per cent). The Inclusion Score enables organisations to compare their D&I performance both at a national level and against peers in similar sectors, such as the public sector, professional services, construction and engineering, and insurance and finance, among others. It also gives them the opportunity to monitor their own D&I performance and progress, providing data and insights to report to governing boards for corporate sustainability reporting directive (CSRD) needs and for sharing with other stakeholders. Tracking and Improving D&I Progress To track and improve an organisation's D&I progress, the Irish Centre for Diversity delivers an initial survey followed by an action plan with recommendations for improvements. A second survey is conducted 24 months later to monitor progress, with Irish Centre for Diversity records showing 100 per cent of organisations improving. Improvement pathways can include D&I training, and according to the D&I benchmarking data, the top requested trainings over the last two years are mental health, promoting good mental health at work, unconscious bias and inclusive leadership. The latest findings from the benchmarking data show that the number of staff who have attended D&I training has increased by 6.2 per cent in the last two years, from 55.9 per cent to 62.1 per cent. A further finding from the latest research shows that 85 per cent of workers believe that colleagues take D&I seriously in the way that they behave and the things that they say, with line managers scoring 83.8 per cent and senior managers 71.5 per cent. It also shows that 91.5 per cent of people think those they work with are accepting of other people whatever their background. Announcing the official launch of the Inclusion Score today, the managing director of the Irish Centre for Diversity, Caroline Cummins, said: "We are in a unique position working with hundreds of companies across all sectors and collecting data that covers both the diversity of staff and the culture of Irish workplaces. Having such comprehensive and robust data on workplace diversity and inclusio...

Quantum technology specialists from across Europe are gathering at the Camden Court Hotel in Dublin city this week for a 3-day conference organised by the IrelandQCI Project Leads at Walton Institute in South East Technological University (SETU). Minister of State at the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications, with special responsibility for Communications and Circular Economy, Ossian Smyth T. D., was delighted to address attendees today, Tuesday, 2 July 2024, an audience made up of representatives from the European Commission, European Space Agency and technology specialists from across Irish and European industry and academia. The €10m Ireland Quantum Communications Infrastructure (QCI) project, almost one and a half years into its 30 month duration, is one of several EuroQCI projects across the European Union which sees the European Commission working with 27 Member States, as well as the European Space Agency, towards the deployment of a secure quantum communication infrastructure spanning the EU. The €10m project, co-funded by the European Commission and the Irish government's Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications, is working to create an innovative quantum technology ecosystem, future-proofing Ireland's communications infrastructure against cyber-attacks. The IrelandQCI team is working to establish Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) infrastructure along a major network backbone from Dublin to Cork via Waterford using a quantum channel integrated with existing classical fibre systems. The project will trial 16 quantum security technology scenarios with key stakeholders across the general public, industry and academic sectors over the project duration. This week's QCI Ireland event in Dublin spans 3 days of industry and academic stakeholder engagement, workshops, training and technology specialist addresses from representatives of the European Commission's PETRUS network - the organisation coordinating the deployment of EuroQCI - and will see over 150 attendees each day. Opening remarks today were delivered by John Regan, Managing Director of ESB Telecoms, who then introduced Ossian Smyth T.D. who commented on the importance of the IrelandQCI project and Ireland's fantastic collaborative efforts with the EU and wider EuroQCI territories. Minister Smyth said, 'I'm delighted that the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications is co-funding the IrelandQCI project with the European Commission. With the creation of a secure communication network, this project represents a major step forward in our ability to protect and encrypt communications. Working collaboratively with European partners through the EuroQCI initiative is a key pillar of the project and I'm glad to see members of other European QCI projects in attendance. I'd like to commend the Walton Institute for organising today's event which has brought together a wide range of stakeholders from across many different industries. Today's event will benefit both the IrelandQCI project and stakeholders in attendance through collaboration and knowledge-sharing'. Waterford's Walton Institute in SETU is leading the €10 million IrelandQCI project on behalf of SFI CONNECT. Several national universities and research centres make up the consortium of partners involved in the project, including quantum technology experts from Trinity College Dublin, UCC's Tyndall National Institute, UCD, Maynooth University and the Irish Centre for High-End Computing at the University of Galway, and industry partners HEAnet and ESB Telecoms. These academic and industry specialists are pooling their expertise and resources to achieve success in adding an extra security layer to Ireland's communications infrastructure and the data it transmits. Project Lead and Director of Research at Walton Institute, Dr Deirdre Kilbane, commented: "This event is an excellent coming-together of the quantum communication community not only from across Ireland but ac...

Today, Israel will appear before the International Court of Justice, to reject South Africa's allegation that it is committing genocide in Gaza. South Africa is calling for Israel to end the military operation in Gaza that has left 20,000 people dead, and millions more displaced and hungry. South Africa says the actions of the Israeli military are in breach of the 1948 Genocide Convention, an accusation that Israel vehemently denies. In this episode, Shane Darcy, a law professor at the University of Galway and deputy director of the Irish Centre for Human Rights joins Sorcha Pollak to discuss what the court will have to consider in this case.

This week on Macklin's Take we bring you a very special episode. We talk often on the podcast about amateur boxing, about how vital amateur clubs are, not just to the sport, but also to the communities they belong to, and how the people who run them are the sport's true, unsung heroes. Well a couple of weeks ago Matt invited me along to the birthday party of his old amateur coach, a man who helped save and shape so many young people's lives and who also brought through more than his fair share of champions. Pat Benson, in his late 80s now, ran Small Heath Boxing club, a powerhouse of an ABC, for decades and the turnout at the Irish Centre spoke volumes about the esteem in which he is held by everyone who walked through the doors of the club. We sat down with the likes of Wayne Elcock, Paul Ramsey, Anthony Maynard, Rowan Williams, Dennis Brown and Shaun Cogan amongst others to re-live some glory days and reflect on the impact boxing and Small Heath has had on their lives.

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   Dr. Bonny Ling is a scholar and practitioner who works on international human rights and development. She is Executive Director of Work Better Innovations, a research consultancy with a community service mission working on new ideas for a responsible economy. We spoke about her work with migrant workers, the challenges that Taiwan has faced in dealing with migrant workers, why it is important for Taiwan to address the wider challenges of combatting human trafficking and modern slavery. She also spoke about her forced labor project that is going to take her back to Taiwan to work with SMEs (small medium enterprises) in December. In Taiwan 98 percent of all businesses are small medium enterprises and they employ close to 80 percent of the total domestic workforce. The European Union (EU) defines a small enterprise as one with less than 50 employees and a medium enterprise as one with less than 250 employees.   Dr. Bonny Ling has worked in the UN system and in international civil society. Bonny is a Senior Non-Resident Fellow with the University of Nottingham Taiwan Studies Programme; Research Fellow with the Institute for Human Rights and Business; and Advisory Board Member of the INGO Human Rights at Sea. Bonny wrote her PhD in Law on human trafficking and China at the Irish Centre of Human Rights and is an expert on human trafficking and modern slavery. She graduated from Cambridge University (criminology) and the Fletcher School, Tufts University (law and diplomacy). Bonny has served as an international election observer in East Timor and for the OSCE.
