AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Heatwave Watch: Met Éireann has issued a new Status Yellow high-temperature warning for nine counties (Carlow, Kilkenny, Laois, Offaly, Wexford, Cork, Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford) from midday Friday to 8pm, with maximums above 27C and knock-on risks including heat stress, drought and higher fire danger. Water Stress: Uisce Éireann has also put a hosepipe ban in place for parts of Dublin and surrounding areas until 26 August, alongside night-time restrictions on 39 supplies, as warm weather drives up demand. Wildfire Warning: A blaze in Killarney National Park is being blamed on human activity, with officials saying it was “not a natural disaster”. Farm Transition: The Just Transition Commission says farmers need long-term clarity and funding to cut emissions and protect biodiversity, warning uncertainty is undermining willingness to act. Circular Economy Policy: Ireland is seeking views on a draft textile EPR scheme, aiming to boost collection, sorting, reuse and recycling ahead of April 2028. Energy & Industry: Intel plans a €5bn expansion at Leixlip to scale AI chip production, while Uisce Éireann defends its €4.6bn Shannon-to-Dublin water pipeline as having “negligible” local impact. Local Biodiversity: Kildare County Council is tackling artificial light at night, linking light pollution to wildlife and dark-sky loss.
