Darragh is back from his slow travels and is joined by Ciara and Anna to look at the climate news.

A scientific study has concluded that our extremely wet winter was made wetter and windier by climate change.

The local and european elections are coming up on June 7th, why do they matter and how do you tackle a candidate at your doorstep? (Ciara wants to know).

We also find some good news stories to share, our national bird is making a comeback.

Actions we recommend this week:

Check out the Friends of the Earth election toolkit and email your councillor candidates.

This EU Parliament Scoreboard | WWF shows you how Irish parties voted on climate and environmental issues (hint: some have very poor voting records).

If you want to know more, sign up for European election hustings on May 28th.
