Marie KilduffHOST
I'm absolutely hearing that human connection piece from what you've said.
Marie KilduffHOST
And interestingly, around presence in April, when you did give your recent inaugural lecture at Maynooth University, you argued that presence and compassion are not soft additions to nursing, but the things technology and busyness might threaten.
Marie KilduffHOST
Can you explain what you meant by that, Vinton?
Fintan SheeranGUEST
I saw during my time in nursing and last September was, gosh, last September was 40 years since I started in the career path.
12 MINS LATER
Marie KilduffHOST
Fintan, you've mentioned burnout a few times and, you know, it's something we all need to look out for in ourselves and our colleagues and everybody.
Marie KilduffHOST
You mentioned that you had yourself, you were on the verge with yourself and you also mentioned preparing students.
Marie KilduffHOST
And you're now head of school of the first school of nursing in Maynooth University, which opened, maybe the first cohort has just gone through, completed their first year.
Marie KilduffHOST
And as part of the preparation of those students in 10 years time, if you were to meet one of those students, what would you like them to say about their experience of being a student?
Sinéad MooneyHOST
Bringing us to our climate emergency.
Sinéad MooneyHOST
On Morning Ireland, Justin spoke to Professor Peter Thorne from Maynooth University about a new global report that found seven of the nine planetary boundaries are being breached.
Justin McCarthySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
What are the planetary boundaries and why does crossing them matter?

Martina DevlinGUEST
Like last weekend, I was at the Historical Novel Society conference, annual conference, which was in Ireland for the first time this year.
Martina DevlinGUEST
It was in Maynooth University.
Martina DevlinGUEST
And I met all sorts of fascinating people and heard all sorts of stories.
Martina DevlinGUEST
And It just refreshes and invigorates you.
John GibbonsGUEST
Yeah, this is yet something new to add to the list of things that we have to be worried about.
John GibbonsGUEST
This is a study, Matt, coming out of Maynooth University.
John GibbonsGUEST
And they're looking, obviously, we're getting warmer summers.
John GibbonsGUEST
I think that's pretty clear.
Rachael EnglishHOST
The findings have potentially significant implications for Irish agriculture, which has traditionally depended on relatively predictable rainfall and soil moisture conditions.
Rachael EnglishHOST
Let's talk now to Dr Clare Bergan of Maynooth University's Icarus Climate Research Centre.
Rachael EnglishHOST
Clare, what did you monitor and what did you find?
Claire BerginGUEST
So when we're looking at drought, we looked at two things in particular.
Claire BerginGUEST
So I'm not saying that every summer will be dead, very dry, but the lack of precipitation at all will be intensified by this extra evaporation that is due to happen in summer months.
Rachael EnglishHOST
All right, Clare, thank you very much for talking to us this afternoon.
Rachael EnglishHOST
Clare Bergen there of Maynooth University's Icarus Climate Research Centre.
Shane BeattyHOST
Ireland must plan for warmer summer days and nights as well as more frequent droughts in the coming years as a result of climate change.
Shane BeattyHOST
A report has warned researchers from Maynooth University's Wasitas climate project noted that heat waves seen during this year's hottest summer on record have become significantly more common because of rising global temperatures.
Shane BeattyHOST
So that report out today, stark warning.
Shane BeattyHOST
Another interesting story this time, also in the Irish Examiner, rise in number of victims questioning DPP's decisions not to prosecute cases.
Cormac Ó hEadhraHOST
Can we talk climate now? Because this report, Roderick O'Gorman from Maynooth University, along with Matt Halen and Chagas, saying climate change is making Ireland increasingly vulnerable to summer drought by causing higher temperatures to draw more moisture from soils and vegetation.
Cormac Ó hEadhraHOST
It's creating, as we've seen this summer, and will create huge problems for residents and agri and business, won't it?
Roderic O'GormanGUEST
Yeah, and I think what was most striking about the report is not that there's less rain, but just because it is so hot that that level of evaporation, its driving is going to leave us with hotter and drier summers.
Rachael EnglishHOST
Now, the inquiry into the OMA bomb has been told that there were around 30 active members of the real IRA at the time of the atrocity.
