Fossa Climate Action Group

Fossa Climate Action Group We are a community group that was founded in 2023 to raise awareness of the climate and biodiversity crises.

We organise four seasonal events each year to inspire, empower, and educate the public. The four seasons are Imbolc, Bealtaine, Lughnasa + Samhain Fossa Climate Action Group was established in late 2023 to raise awareness of the climate and biodiversity crises. Even though it's a global issue, action needs to begin at home in your local community. Inspiration for the group came from a global persp

ective but the small steps to raise awareness will begin in the local community hall on January 28th with an Eco Fair showcasing groups, organisations, and small businesses who are doing their part for a healthy and sustainable future for people and nature.

Our country is vulnerable to energy cost shocks as we continue to use imported fossil fuels. This has happened recently with the Israeli and the US governments interference in the Middle East. The price of Home Heating Oil rose by 67.5% between February and March of this year in Ireland. - Central Statistics Office.

It can feel disempowering to have prices jump due to actions overseas so we must act locally. How can we do that?

Come and join us on Wednesday, June 3rd at 7:30pm to find out. Caitriona Fallon of the SEAI will be providing a free information session at Fossa Community Centre in which she will tell attendees of the Warmer Homes Grant, Sustainable Energy Sources, and ways to reduce your energy bills. This event is being hosted by Fossa Climate Action Group, a voluntary, community group based in Fossa. All are welcome to attend.

The Web of Life

Fossa Climate Action Group Hold Day of Reflection

As Samhain is felt and the days become ever shorter, Fossa Climate Action Group will host its last event of 2025. On Sunday 30th November at 4:30pm, ‘The Web of Life’ will be an event of reflection for all members of the public. It will take place at Fossa Church, just west of Killarney and will feature two thought provoking speakers: Sylvia Thompson and Dr. Brendan O’ Keefe.
Sylvia Thompson is a Peace Activist and Community Leader who has been working for climate justice for many years. She is also a committee member of JPIC (Justice, Peace, and Integrity of Creation)in Kerry. Her talk will explore ‘What do spirituality and ethics say to us about caring for our common home?’
Dr. Brendan O’ Keefe is a geographer and social scientist that has published many papers on rural geography and sustainable communities. He will examine ‘What does science tell us about Kerry’s changing climate?’
Our local area is interconnected to places that surround it and as a whole we share our home with all people, animals, and plants that form a delicate ‘web of life’.
Man did not weave the web of life;
he is merely a strand in it.
Whatever he does to the web,
he does to himself.
Everyone is welcome and admission is free thanks to funding from Community Foundation Ireland and the Department of the Environment.
