I remember watching this video by Kev Collins a while back where he covered the Aughinish plant in Co. Limerick. His documentary revealed a horrible site on the west coast of Ireland. Red ponds of waste that blow into neighbouring farms and a family that had to move out of their family home because of it.
Then comes the fact that most of the aluminum produced there ends up in Russia and will inevitably end up in weapons and munitions used against Ukraine.
A month ago Caolon Robertson shared a video short about the same plant, showing a ship that had just left Aughinish for St. Petersburg in Russia. A few hours ago he posted his documentary on Aughinish. It’s worth watching.
It’s shameful that Ireland is allowing this plant to export to Russia.
