Crucial Health and Environmental Issues To Be Threshed Out

The current monthly meeting starts with bacon, egg, sausages, black pudding, potato bread, pancake, brown sauce, orange juice, toast, tea. Some of our members may even commence in the luxury of corn flakes, milk. The starting time is 10.00 tomorrow morning and the venue is The Strand, Omeath. It is located 90m to the right from the pier in Omeath as one approaches from the main cross-roads in the village.

Greenore

Suicide prevention is the main topic to be discussed at our 12th annual winter workshop in January 2012 and preparations get under way in the morning in Omeath. Our workshops are usually streamlined and interesting partly due to advance planning and partly due to excellent facilitation on the day usually provided by Archbishop Michael Desmond Hynes who is secretary/PRO of the Cooley Environmental and Health Group.

Considerable controversy has arisen from the proposal to construct 5 or 6 giant wind turbines each 200m high on Rockmarshall mountain. There are many local objections. What attitude, if any, will Cooley Environmental and Health Group adopt?

General stock-taking about finance and membership of the group will also be undertaken in the morning.

Anyone interested is welcome to attend. Visitors from outside Co Louth are especially welcome. Please let us know if you are coming
