Donal Hickey says local warnings should be heeded

THE landslide in Kerry last weekend killed at least 8,000 fish.

KERRY County Council staff were yesterday continuing their efforts to restore access to a house still isolated in the wake of the weekend landslide at Kielduff, near Tralee.

Weather change from global warming is unleashing fresh threats to our environment and landscape, writes Donal Hickey.

EMERGENCY services were yesterday working on the restoration of water supplies to people in a large stretch of north-east Kerry, following a huge landslide at the weekend.

Tens of thousands of homes in north Kerry have been cut off from their water supply.

Up to 25,000 people in North Kerry are without water after a landslide polluted the River Feale.

Four people have been trapped in their homes by a landslide outside Tralee in Co Kerry.

PLANNING permission is being sought for a second wind-farm in a controversial area earmarked for the conservation of the endangered hen harrier, it emerged yesterday.
