Let's Go Green with Aisling O'Rourke
Tuesday, 7 October 2025 - 49 minutes
This week on Let’s Go Green with Aisling O’Rourke on Midlands 103, we’re focusing on taking climate action at home and in the community, and we mark the loss of a truly unique voice in Irish environmental storytelling.
Odran Casey of Electric Ireland joins me to explain the key steps involved in installing solar panels on your home. We look at what homeowners need to consider, the grants available, and how solar energy can contribute to long-term savings and sustainability.
Hans Zomer of Global Action Plan - GAP Ireland speaks to us ahead of Community Gardens Week. We explore the role of community gardens in building resilience, improving wellbeing and bringing people together around a shared commitment to the environment.
And I pay tribute to Manchán Magan, who passed away on Friday at the age of 55. A writer, broadcaster and passionate advocate for Ireland’s natural and cultural heritage, Manchán’s work inspired many to see the world, and our place in it with greater care and curiosity.
