The Republic of Ireland is a fishing nation with waters rich in all kinds of sea life. But with Brexit, Ireland has lost fishing quotas in British waters, and with the Irish government, in agreement with Brussels, approving an €80 million plan to scrap around sixty fishing boats - almost one third of the Irish fleet - in exchange for subsidies, the future looks bleak. In the port of Castletownbere, 16 boats will be scrapped, a tragedy for the fishing town.

With Brexit and EU quota changes, the future for fishing in Ireland looks bleak.

All children in France must attend school, but the right to housing depends on the administrative status of their parents. In major cities, private flats have become inaccessible for the most families of modest means. But demand for social housing supply outstrips supply: in the Parisian region, the waiting period is at least two years, and there's a shortage of two million social housing units. Children find themselves without a fixed abode. To assist them, teachers are taking action: in Lyon, a collective has found shelter for 450 students.

Amid a social housing shortage, teachers are trying to find accommodation for their homeless students.

In October 2022, residents of the pretty French mountain town of Rumilly were shocked to discover that their drinking water was contaminated with forever chemicals. The supply lines for the town's 16,000 residents were closed. Mayor Christian Heison had never heard of these toxic PFAS before, but for months - maybe years - he and his community had been unwittingly drinking them.

The pretty French mountain town of Rumilly is a forever chemical hotspot.
