Sustainable power
A.D. The names of all the people who completed the domestic energy survey by 2020 have been added to the MiHome home energy control kit by the Larg-Glendalo Sustainable Energy Action Team.
Congratulations to Michael Kulen, the Kitty winner.
The United Nations Climate Change Report has clearly outlined the challenges that even small rural communities, such as the Large / Glendalog, face. Climate change is now “widespread, rapid and intensifying” and the window is closing quickly to prevent catastrophic change.
The report also warns that rising temperatures, droughts and floods, and key temperatures will only break ten years from now.
Improving energy efficiency in our communities is critical to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and avoiding dependence on fossil fuels.

Grand Salam Bridge
This week was the second night of the New Season Bridge Club season, as recommended by the CBAI governing body in accordance with the new protocol guidelines.
Members and visitors alike are playing on a protected bridge behind a large clear perimeter division.
When the players arrive wearing masks, the Dominican Ecology Conference Room is well lit and the windows are open and there is a hand sanitizer. Once the players are seated, the masks can be removed.
The club is very concerned about providing a functional playground and has gone to great lengths to try to balance the health and safety of everyone now and in the future.
The new venue will take on something that is familiar to everyone, but so far the club’s actions seem to be allowing Wednesday night’s matches to resume.
The results of the first night in the North-South position saw Jennifer and Paddy Finnegan beat Caroline Brown and Pam McDonald to second. In third place was Linda Walsh and her partner Rose Behan.
Mary Dickinson and Michael Ryan, the two-time winners of the East-West, showed off their clean heels to second-placed Una McGowran and Larry Ryan.
In third place were Claire Sally and Margaret Grant.
The results of the second night saw Margaret Grant and Claire Sally win the North-South pair. Linda Walsh and Carol Woodden came in second, followed by Susiy Byron and Evelyn Hasti.
The East-West couple won by Rose Behan and Billy Dunne. In second place were Maggie Glenfield and Daphne Walne, followed by Una McGowran and Larry Ryan.
If anyone would like to provide the service or share the skills with the team, please contact the Center. For more information, call Dennis at 0404 45600, email brockaghoffice@gmail.com or log on to the Center.
