Arsonist jailed for causing €3m worth of damage to Jesuit Order premises

A "passionate environmentalist" who caused damage totalling €3m in an arson attack on the Irish headquarters of the Jesuit Order has been given a five-year sentence.

Noah Bunn (aged 26), a former clerical employee of the Jesuits and member of environmental group ‘Friends of the Earth’, set the fire on Good Friday last year because he believed the order wasn’t using its "moral authority" to alert the world to the dangers of climate change.
