Highland Radio and Coimisiún na Meán are joining forces once again for series two of Ours To Protect! We’re diving deep into the future of our planet, and the brilliant young minds of Donegal will be leading the conversation!
Get ready to hear from experts and fantastic local children as Donna-Marie Doherty explores all things sustainable!
This month, we’re flipping the switch on the hidden world of energy consumption.
From the power we use to brew our morning tea to the electricity that charges our phones, we’re diving into our daily habits.
Donna-Marie was joined by Fossil Fuel expert, James Garvey, Author of Time nor Tide and Chairperson of Ógra Fianna Fáil, Ben Harkin, Programme Executive of Solar PV with SEAI, Seán Foran, and Chairperson of the Donegal VFI branch Cllr Martin Harley.
Have you got a question that’s been bugging you? Like, what’s the deal with bees? Or where on earth does our recycling go? We want to hear it! Send your questions – write them down or record a quick voice note – to donnamarie@highlandradio.com, and don’t forget to tell us your name and age!
The next programme will be looking at farming!
