Good Energies Alliance Ireland

GEAI is a small environmental NGO situated in County Leitrim in Northwest of Ireland. Founded in 2011, GEAI actively campaigned against fracking and was to the forefront of that campaign. With other organisations, we successfully, with cross-party support, got legislation passed to ban fracking in 2017. Since 2017, we have focused our attention on climate action and the promotion of alternative energy sources. We have carried out energy surveys of communities and areas and developed an extensive website and social media platform to promote our aims. We work with local and regional communities and schools. Main objects a) To address the current climate crisis by promoting environmental and climate protection and resilience, monitoring energy production and use on the island of Ireland and elsewhere, and any other related activities thereto. b) To promote and develop Ballinaglera Community Hall as an environmental and community resource centre and to establish, promote and operate programmes and services with a view to fostering the economic, personal, cultural, recreational, and social well-being of the communities of Ballinaglera and wider areas. c) Through the Erasmus+ European Solidarity Corps programme, to host young people and to empower them to participate in environmental protection, solidarity and democratic processes at local, national and international levels.
