In a week when the presidential election dominated national media, we focused in on healthcare and disabilities here on Galway Talks. ​ ​We started off the week by hearing the story of Siobhán Cunningham. Her TikTok went viral when she posted outside A&E. The Loughrea woman had to sit back in her car because there was absolutely no room for her to sit down in the waiting room. She talked us through her journey of misdiagnosis, long waits in A&E, and also a lack of step-down support and care plans. Siobhán got a huge reaction from our listeners, who told their own stories of their own difficulties in A&E. ​ ​We also focused in on mental health on the programme this week, when Wayne Murphy told us of his descent into despair. Wayne told us about how his brother's suicide triggered his own mental health crisis. He's now in recovery and is back out of the mental health support unit. He told us that he wants to be an inspiration to others to share their stories and speak out when they too are going through times of despair.   ​Now, medical negligence was very much to the fore at the beginning of the week, as it was reported by the Irish Hospital Consultants Association that over €5.3 billion of the health budget goes towards the area. Money well spent from the patient's point of view but could it be used to invest in under pressure healthcare services? We debated that with Johan Verbruggen, Head of Medical Negligence with Fieldfisher.

WHAT ABOUT MUSIC? In tune with climate action or out of key? | Featuring Daniel Morrell

Fossil vs Future

Play Episode Listen Later Oct 7, 2025 32:04


Like any industry, music has a carbon footprint – from live events and global touring to merchandise and streaming. Yet what makes music unique is its reach and power to inspire change. In this episode, James and Daisy are joined by Daniel Morrell – sustainability pioneer, environmental activist, artist, and electronic musician. Together they explore music's role in the fight against climate change. What are the impacts of the industry? How can music drive climate action? Who is leading the change?SOME RECOMMENDATIONS: Chant Live – An experimental “Space Punk” cocktail made up of music legends, technological innovation and environmental action with a dash of one special ingredient – you. Upload your voice via the app to create a unique visual sonic signature and feature in the next gig. It's free for now but future proceeds will plant land art forests. BalanceEco – A platform that makes it easy for people and businesses to 'balance' their environmental impact effectively over the long term.  EarthPercent – Invites artists and the music industry at large to donate a small percentage of their income to nature.OTHER ADVOCATES AND RESOURCES:Coldplay – Reducing the carbon footprint of their Music of the Spheres World Tour. In 2024, the direct emissions were almost 60% lower than their 2016–17 stadium tour (with 18 shows powered entirely by portable battery systems and 72% of all waste diverted from landfill).Massive Attack – Their Act 1.5 show produced 98% less power emissions than comparable concerts.Billie Eilish – A vocal climate advocate and organiser of the Overheated conference that brings together climate activists, musicians and designers to discuss the climate crisis. AURORA – A Norwegian singer, songwriter, producer, and advocate for environmental and social issues.Glastonbury – Since 2023, the festival has been powered entirely by fossil-free energy.Tyndall Centre (2021) – A roadmap for the UK live music sector to play its part in tackling the climate crisis.  Julie's Bicycle – A non-profit mobilising the arts and culture to act on the climate, nature and justice crisis. Hosts the world's largest environmental resource library for the arts. A Greener Future – Helps organisations, events, festivals, and venues around the world to be more sustainable.REVERB – Dedicated to creating a more sustainable music industry.Music Declares Emergency – Brings together artists, industry professionals and fans to call for a governmental response to the climate emergency through the No Music on a Dead Planet campaign. Music Climate Pact – Sets out a series of high-level commitments to serve as a declaration of intent for the global music sector.  Future Forests – The first carbon offsetting company (later renamed The CarbonNeutral company). Live Earth – A series of benefit concerts featuring 150+ musicians across 12 locations held on 7 July, 2007 to combat climate change.SOME FACTS: Nature (2024) – In 2010, researchers used figures from 2007 to estimate that the UK music industry produced some 540,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually, around 0.1% of the country's total energy-related carbon dioxide emissions. Live music accounted for 74% of that.   WORTH A LISTEN: NATURE – Nature is now an official artist on Spotify. At least 50% of recording royalties from “feat. NATURE” tracks are directed to EarthPercent, funding high-impact, rights-based conservation initiatives. Big Yellow Taxi – Joni Mitchell's environmental anthem. Thank you for listening!

Nearly half of everyone watching Irish TV on Sunday evening tuned in for the scheming, lying and game-playing on The Traitors Ireland. It's a hit.RTÉ has joined more than 30 broadcasters worldwide in making a version of the Dutch format which sees players strategising, “killing”, banishing and lying – all to win a cash prize.It is hosted brilliantly with more than hint of theatricality by Cork actor Siobhán McSweeney, who changes her elaborate costumes more often than the contestants change their minds about each other.Just three episodes in and favourite players are emerging but it is impossible to accurately predict the winner.The rules are complicated but the appeal is easy to understand.For Irish Times features writer Patrick Freyne “it's a game of skill and strategy and not just the random weaponisation of groupthink and paranoid pattern recognition that you get in any office, school or newsroom”.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

After saying goodbye to her partner, Giulia settles into life on board and the responsibilities of feeding the Avontuur's crew of 15.

The Irish Small and Medium Enteprise Assocation's new Business Crime Survey showes while just 36% of businesses have been affected by crime in the past 12 months, the most common forms are anti-social behaviour, vandalism, burglary and phising attacks. A whole 78% of respondents believe the judicial system fails to deter repeat offenders while 85% want more Gardaí and 76% are seeking tougher sentencing.
