Every business is trying to reduce its carbon consumption and its carbon output these days but one business has designed a device to suck carbon out of the atmosphere and it could really be a game changer on a worldwide scale if it breaks through. Carbon Collect is an Irish-owned company which has former Taoiseach Enda Kenny on its board, which has worked alongside Arizona State University to design a type of mechanical tree to remove more carbon in one device than an entire forest could. Speaking to Joe this morning was John McKeon Co Founder of Carbon Collect.

Former Taoiseach and Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny reflects on the life of John Bruton.

In this last episode of the second season of the podcast, our guest Joanne O'Riordan is the epitome of everything what a woman is about - a powerful, extraordinary woman whose attitude to life is inspiring for us all and who is breaking down barriers for women and the disabled community. Joanne is a broadcaster, sports journalist and activist who was born with a rare condition known as Total Amelia meaning she was born without all four limbs, one of only seven people worldwide with the condition. When was born, doctors felt her life would be limited but Joanne's family wanted her to grow up with the same opportunities as everyone else, instilling a philosophy in Joanne of no limbs, no limits, the title of an excellent documentary about her early life. Joanne became known for her activism when she was just fifteen and she challenged the then Taoiseach Enda Kenny about cuts to the budget for disability payments and a year later she spoke at a UN summit in New York where she famously said 'I do not look at the word impossible and see impossible. I look at the word and my life and say I'm Possible'. Now twenty seven, Joanne's passion for sport has led to a flourishing career as a sports journalist for the Irish Times and she recently broadcast the documentary A Sporting Chance about equal opportunities for women in sport. It was absolute delight to meet Joanne as her personality and infectious laugh filled the room and I did my best to keep up with her quick wit as we talk about everything from our shared personality traits as Taureans, life plans, splitting opinions in her journalism and why its important to just be yourself.

Ian caught up with former Taoiseach Enda Kenny, Louis Walsh, Nevin Maguire, Steve Staunton and President Michael D Higgins ahead of POTUS' arrival!

Way back in the sixth series of The Lennon Courtney Podcast, we invited some excellent guests to join our podcast party. This week, we're throwing back to our chat with sports writer, podcast host and activist, Joanne O'Riordan. Joanne first gained attention for skipping school to confront then Taoiseach Enda Kenny about his proposed plan to reduce disability funding during his election. In April 2012, she spoke before the UN and challenged the body to create technology to help disabled people such as herself. She was named Young Person of the Year at the People of the Year awards in 2012. Joanne is an activist for people with disabilities, a motivational speaker and a sports columnist with The Irish Times. She appears in the 2013 documentary No Limbs No Limits. Series 9 is coming soon - we promise! Keep an eye on Lennon Courtney on all social media platforms for the launch date. Sonya and Brendan.

This week on the podcast I'm joined by Minister of State for Special Education and Inclusion, Josepha Madigan. Madigan is an Irish Fine Gael politician and qualified solicitor. She spent 20 years practising law and running her own firm before being elected to Dáil Eireann in 2016. She quickly established herself as a rising political figure within the Party and was just three weeks in office when the former Taoiseach Enda Kenny invited her to partake in Government formation talks. As a back-bench TD, she initiated a private members bill that ultimately reduced the divorce waiting time in Ireland from 4 years to 2. In 2017, she became the first female lawyer appointed to the Irish Cabinet where she served as the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht. I caught up the Minister late last year. She tells me what it's like juggling family life with a demanding political career, the people who inspire her in politics and why Article 41.2 of the Irish Constitution (regarding the women's place in the home)needs to be removed to reflect a modern day Ireland.

A joint initiative between Queen's University Belfast (QUB) and the Trinity Long Room Hub chaired by Jane Ohlmeyer, Director of the Trinity Long Room Hub with a conversation facilitated by Richard English, Professor of Politics and Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Internationalization and Engagement at QUB. Jonathan Powell and Rory Montgomery have had distinguished careers which have seen them act as key negotiators in conflict resolution from Northern Ireland to the Basque Country and Colombia. In this conversation-style discussion, Professor Richard English will probe both Rory and Jonathan on their experience of working in environments of conflict, covering topics such as the importance of dialogue and the legacies of the peace process in jurisdictions such as Northern Ireland. They will also discuss the relationship between Ireland, the UK and the EU, reflecting on the new context Brexit poses; and finally, how states respond to crisis, challenges and change such as that posed by the Covid-19 pandemic. Rory Montgomery recently retired from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. Prior to his retirement, he served as Second Secretary General with responsibility for EU issues, including Brexit. Before that he was EU adviser to Taoiseach Enda Kenny (2014-16), Ambassador to France (2013-14), Permanent Representative to the European Union (2009-13), and Political Director, dealing with foreign and security policy, (2005-9).

In his first interview since leaving office in 2017 former Taoiseach Enda Kenny joins Des Cahill to offer his assessment of the ongoing challenge posed by Covid-19 in Ireland, the all consuming nature of life in politics, the impact it has on family life and some of the music that has shaped his approach to life.

PRESIDENTIAL candidate Peter Casey has claimed Travellers should not be recognised as a ethnic minority because they are “basically people camping in someone else's land”. The businessman launched a lengthy attack on the community, arguing: “They are not paying their fair share of taxes in society.” There were celebrations in Leinster House last year when the Dáil gave formal recognition to Travellers as a distinct ethic group within the State. The move was described as historic by then-Taoiseach Enda Kenny. However, Mr Casey said: “That's a load of nonsense. They are not from Romany or whatever.” In a wide-ranging interview, on Independent.ie's podcast, ‘The Floating Voter', the candidate also criticises RTÉ's handling of Monday's televised debate and says he will apologise to Michael D Higgins for claiming taxpayers fund his dog-grooming bill if the President can produce receipts. Mr Casey claims he warned RTÉ about the potential for an audience to interrupt the ‘Claire Byrne Live' debate as happened on Monday night. In a statement to Independent.ie, RTÉ disputed this assertion and said all candidates were aware of the selection process for audience members. RTÉ also denied there was a dispute between management and Mr Casey after the show, saying the all the candidates were thanked for their attendance. “RTÉ continues to be in communication and liaise with Mr Casey's team today and he is scheduled to do an one to one interview on the RTÉ Six One News live,” a spokesperson said. When challenged on the podcast about his views on Travellers, Mr Casey doubled down, saying the arrival of Travellers in an area “devastates the prices of the houses”. “Let's call a spade a spade. Your house price doesn't start going through the roof as soon as you get two dozen Travellers moving in down the street from you.” He cited an ongoing dispute in Tipperary where six new homes are lying empty in a €1.7m development because families living on an unauthorised site nearby are refusing to move in until they get stables for horses. “I mean how ridiculous have we become as a society where they are turning down beautiful, four-bedroom houses because there'll blackmailing the county council into giving them stables for their horses. “I'm sorry, there's something seriously wrong with society when we're at that stage,” Mr Casey said. His comments were last night described by Pavee Point as “informed and grossly insulting and offensive”. And David Joyce, a member of the Travelling community and the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission, told the Irish Independent: “He should withdraw from the campaign. He's shown he's not fit to represent all the people of Ireland. “This man is a racist. He is scapegoating my community.” Mr Joyce, who is also a solicitor, added: “I don't think any presidential campaign in the past has ever stooped to this level of blatant racism.” Martin Collins, Co Director, Pavee Point Traveller & Roma Centre, said: “These comments put his presidential campaign on the same level as a local election where people play the nimby card to gain votes, as we have seen so often in the past. “This potentially can feed into racist stereotypes and it is both reckless and irresponsible and certainly not befitting anyone standing to be President for all the people of Ireland.” The interview was described as “very concerning” by Shane O'Curry, director of the European Network Against Racism, which has 87 member organisations in Ireland.

Taoiseach Enda Kenny apologised yesterday for the appalling treatment of 'Grace', a child with an intellectual disability, in our care system. Independent Alliance TD and Minister of State with responsibility for disabilities Finian McGrath joins Hugh Linehan, Sarah Bardon and Fiach Kelly to talk about the case. They also discuss Irish Water, and Finian mounts a defence of the "do-nothing Dáil".

It's been a busy week in politics and there's a lot to get through on today's podcast. First political reporter Sarah Bardon looks back at a shambolic few days on the Government front bench. Dáil watchers concur it has been a shocker from Fine Gael, and especially from Taoiseach Enda Kenny, whose tenure as party leader is measured now in days and weeks, not months and years, says Sarah. Then Alan Kelly of Labour and John McGuinness of Fianna Fáil join us to talk about the treatment of Garda whistleblowers Maurice McCabe and Keith Harrison, and what they want from the tribunal of inquiry that is now to be set up. Deputy Kelly says he wants to "flush out" any members of Government who were briefed by senior Gardaí about allegations against Sgt McCabe, while Deputy McGuinness expresses no faith in the government his own party props up. And finally we take a quick look at the history of tribunals of inquiry in this state with Irish Times legal affairs correspondent Colm Keena. Must they be costly, lengthy and largely ineffective? And should they be televised?

Sarah Carey meets An Taoiseach Enda Kenny for a fireside chat in his office

To take a look back at a six month period of "new politics" that is now ending with ambitious Minister Coveney's new rental reform package, and with Taoiseach Enda Kenny still firmly at the helm, Political Editor Pat Leahy chatted with his chums Michael O'Regan, Fiach Kelly and Sarah Bardon. Will Coveney's hard work pay dividends of power down the line?

On this week's politics podcast, Political Editor Stephen Collins talks to Fiach Kelly about the looming garda strike action and Taoiseach Enda Kenny's all-Ireland Brexit forum. And down at Leinster House, Harry McGee talks to TDs and senators about their experiences of how the press covers them and their activities, how they deal with the growing number of social media trolls and the problem of populism in the Dáil chamber.

“We've learnt our lessons,” declared Fianna Fail TD, James Lawless, reacting on the Floating Voter podcast to the latest opinion poll that shows Fianna Fail surging to 33%. “Time has moved on, we've all moved on,” said the Kildare North TD when asked how the party has come back from the brink so quickly. The party's increasing popularity also shows that the new politics is working, he said. “We're getting stuck in and not shouting from the sidelines looking to bring down the government.” While Micheal Martin is also number one in the party leader ratings, it is Taoiseach Enda Kenny who is coming under increasing pressure. Backbench TDs are asking when he's going to step down and the Floating Voter team of Niall O'Connor and Cormac McQuinn asked whether the Taoiseach was now a political corpse, questioning if he will be gone after the next budget in October. The Floating Voter is Independent.ie's weekly political podcast, cutting through the political soundbytes and bursting some of the bubble that surrounds Leinster House.

The day all Dáil-watchers have been waiting for is finally here. But did Taoiseach Enda Kenny duff the dissolution of the Dail with his unceremonious farewell and awkward appearance with Tanaiste Joan Burton? Fiach Kelly and Mary Minihan join Hugh Linehan to discuss the morning's events on the first of our special #GE16 podcasts.

News   The new mobile seems to be getting decent reviews but these are from people who rarely use LinkedIn and are therefore not able to see it’s faults. Linkedin recruit 100 new people in Dublin and manage to persuade the Taoiseach Enda Kenny to attend an event at their offices by persuading his office that Dublin was LinkedIn’s ‘worldwide headquarters!   Commentary LinkedIn new iOS mobile app review First impressions of the app are really good, the design is more modern and the navigation looks more intuitive. The app is split into five sections. Here you will see status updates and publish posts from your connections and those you follow as well as sponsored updates. Unfortunately you cannot change from the algorithm driven order to ‘recent’ updates as you can on the desktop version. This means that you see updates from 15 days ago, then one from 3 minutes ago followed by one posted 20 minutes ago. The order is supposed to be tailored to your needs and interest and I guess we will be able to train the algorithm to be more accurate through our actions but as things stand, my updates were pretty poor. The app updates are also completely different to the order of the desktop ones (that was also the case with the old app). I noticed that every time I opened the app the second update I saw was always a sponsored advert. This is a significant increase over the amount of advertising we saw in the previous app. At the top of the homepage you can see links to share a status update or a photo, As with the desktop version the share option also allows you to add an image therefore making it pretty much the same thing! ‘Image updates are broken’ I found it's extremely difficult to successfully post an image update. When tapping on ‘photo’ and selecting an image from my phone (taken with the phones camera) the app just hung for along time before it eventually informing me that the upload was unsuccessful. I did eventually managed to post a more simple image via ‘share’ but not before posting the same update five times! I made this short video showing exactly what the problem was In the top right corner of the home page you can see 9 dots in a square, tap on this to reveal the ‘other apps’ feature which allows you to seamlessly open LinkedIn’s other apps. Note how the Connected app is missing from the list. Could this be an indication that Connected and it’s desktop cousin ‘Contacts’ are soon to be retired? It wouldn’t surprise me. The Sales Navigator and Recruiter apps are also missing but this may be because they are premium accounts. LinkedIn’s strategy has always been to produce multiple apps covering specific areas rather then have one app try to do everything and this feature nicely brings it altogether, this works well with iOS 9 which allows an easy return to the last app used. On a more positive note they have corrected the issue that meant you could only @mention people by their full name. I always thought it was very odd to refer to someone you know in an update - your own or commenting on theirs by their full name such as “You make a good point Teddy Burris” As opposed to the more natural “You make a good point Teddy” It’s these apparently small details that make all the difference, especially when they involve communication. You have always been able to do this on desktop, now you can on mobile. My final observation is also a positive one in that you can hide updates from people who post irrelevant things in your stream (quizzes, irrelevant images and posts in a foreign language). Simply click on the three small dots on the top right of the update; This then reveals three options as shown below;
