WISDOM: Tom Hoopes March 24, 2026
Cicero’s words about friendship have haunted me since I first heard
them eight years ago — and I thought they were tailor-made for this
year’s Symposium on Transforming Culture at Benedictine College in
Atchison, Kansas. Cicero said that if someone “could ascend to heaven
and get a clear view of the natural order of the universe, and the
beauty of the heavenly bodies, that wonderful spectacle would give him
small pleasure if he had no one with whom he could tell what he had
seen.” https://media.benedictine.edu/

Initially, your seedlings will resemble blades of grass – once they

peeled for signs of growth. In the autumn, seedlings are ready to be
planted in your garden – the RHS recommends choosing a sheltered spot,
in sun or light shade.

CLIMATE: By Mark Saludes, LiCAS News
Catholic bishops from Africa, Asia, and Latin America have called on
governments to adopt a global treaty to halt fossil fuel expansion and
guide a just transition to renewable energy.
The appeal is contained in the “Manifesto of the Churches of the
Global South for our Common Home,” issued by continental episcopal
bodies representing the Catholic Church across the Global South, with
accompanying support from church leaders in Europe and Oceania.
In the document sent to LiCAS News, the Bishops say communities across
Africa, Latin America, and Asia are already experiencing the
consequences of climate change and unsustainable economic systems.
=======================
KOREA: Under the rule, drivers of gas-powered vehicles in the public
sector must refrain from driving one day each week, with the day
determined by the last digit of their license plate.
——————–
The environment ministry estimates the reinforced measure will affect
1.5 million vehicles and save roughly 3,000 barrels of petroleum —
equivalent to 476,700 liters — per day. With the gasoline price
averaging 1,818.92 won per liter as of 6 p.m. Tuesday, that amounts to
approximately 867 million won ($579,210) in daily savings.
==============================
ENERGY Plans: Ministers also unveiled plans for energy companies to
offer discounted bills to residents living near wind farms on windy
days. This would apply when operators are typically paid to turn off
due to network constraints.
These initiatives are the latest in a series of government
announcements doubling down on its clean energy drive.

==============================
PLANNING: Ireland’s Renewable Energy Planning Delays
Conversation with Gemini
You said
planning delays in renewable energy costing Ireland jobs
Gemini said
In Ireland, the conversation around renewable energy has shifted from
“can we build it?” to “will we be allowed to build it in time?” While
the country has massive potential—particularly in offshore
wind—systemic planning delays are currently acting as an economic
bottleneck.
As of early 2026, the cost of these delays is being measured in three
key areas: direct sector jobs, industrial competitiveness, and state
penalties.
1. Direct Job Losses and Stalled Growth
The renewable sector is a massive employer, but those jobs depend on a
steady pipeline of projects.
The Wind Gap: Wind Energy Ireland (WEI) has noted that while the
industry supports over 5,000 jobs, the “stalling” of onshore wind is a
major risk. In 2024/2025, only a fraction of the required capacity was
granted permission. When projects don’t move from “planning” to
“construction,” hundreds of potential site-based jobs evaporate.
Solar Potential vs. Reality: A 2025 KPMG report estimated the
solar sector could support over 7,100 jobs by 2030. However, if
planning consistency across counties isn’t achieved, these
roles—largely in installation, engineering, and maintenance—remain
hypothetical rather than actual.
Offshore Delay Costs: Thousands of jobs are tied to the
development of offshore wind ports. Without clear planning timelines,
developers are looking to ports in Belfast or Great Britain to service
Irish projects, effectively exporting Irish jobs to neighboring
economies.
2. Industrial Competitiveness
Ireland’s “Large Energy User Action Plan” (2026) highlights that
future high-value jobs in AI, semiconductors, and biopharma are now
tied to “Green Energy Parks.”
Investor Uncertainty: Large multinationals (like data center
operators) are now required to co-locate with renewable energy. If the
planning system cannot deliver the wind or solar farms to power these
facilities, those companies may choose to invest in other EU
jurisdictions where energy infrastructure is more predictable.
The Competitiveness Rank: Infrastructure quality—specifically
energy and water—has seen Ireland’s global competitiveness ranking
slip. Delays in the planning system (often cited as taking 60–70+
weeks for major decisions) increase project risks and costs, making
Ireland a more expensive place to do business.
3. The “Taxpayer Penalty”
Perhaps the most direct “cost” is the financial burden on the Irish
state, which diverts money away from domestic job-creating
investments.
EU Compliance Fines: In March 2026, the Cabinet was warned that
Ireland is projected to miss its 2025 and 2030 interim renewable
targets.
The Cost of Failure: Reports from the Irish Fiscal Advisory
Council (IFAC) estimate that missing these targets could cost the
taxpayer between €200 million and €4.4 billion. This is money that
must be paid to the EU for “statistical allocations” (buying credits
from other countries) instead of being invested in Irish
infrastructure and local employment.
Summary of Planning Bottlenecks
Issue Status (2025/26) Economic Impact
An Bord Pleanála Backlog Re-established as An Coimisiún Pleanála to
fix delays. Average wait times of 60+ weeks for strategic
decisions.
Judicial Reviews Up 20% in early 2025. Legal uncertainty halts
construction hiring for years.
Grid Capacity ~14% of wind power “lost” due to weak grid.
High energy bills for businesses and reduced ROI for investors.
Looking Ahead
The government is banking on the Planning and Development Act 2024 and
the new National Planning Statements to streamline the process. If
these reforms succeed in 2026, it could unlock a pipeline of projects
worth billions; if they fail, the “brain drain” of renewable energy
expertise to more efficient markets is likely to accelerate.
==============================
LYME disease is a bacterial illness transmitted to humans through the
bite of infected ticks.
Symptoms include fever, headache, fatigue, and a characteristic skin
rash called erythema migrans.
The vaccine candidate, PF-07307405, demonstrated more than 70 percent
efficacy in preventing Lyme disease in individuals aged five years and
above in the latest clinical trial phase.
