Welcome, dear reader, to an issue where, amongst other things, we talk about the one thing that we all have in common, no matter our sexuality, gender expression, or belief system – that we all live on planet earth and right now our home is in crisis. It’s time for real talk, by actually having a conversation about making big changes instead of patting ourselves on the back for recycling a plastic bottle. What truly unites us all is the fact we all have to unite in order to pull the world out of its downward momentum.
From L-R Katie Donohoe, Stefano Pappalardo, Lisa Connell, Peter Dunne, Dave Darcy.
To that end, in this issue we have a piece by a member of Extinction Rebellion Ireland about their journey into awareness of the climate crisis. There’s a conversation between two members of the LGBT+ community 40 years apart in age but equally as devoted to change. As a centrepiece, we highlight people who made achievable changes in their own lives which will in turn have a big impact in making the world better.
