Sadhbh O'Neill

Hello, I'm, Sadhbh

I remember the moment that I learned about climate change, or the ‘greenhouse effect’ as it was called in the late 1980s. I was terrified.

Since then, very little has been done to bend the emissions curve. But I was left with an overwhelming desire to work for environmental protection and climate justice.

When I was asked to stand on a green ticket in 1991, I stepped up, even though I was still a student at Trinity. I’ve spent the last three decades stepping up.

As a mother, an academic, a writer and an activist, I will bring passion, expertise and experience to the Oireachtas.

I have a proven track record of working with people in all parties and none and a reputation for research excellence and coalition building.

In September 2024 I was delighted to join Labour and I stood as the Party’s candidate in the General Election in the Waterford constitutency. Now I am asking for your number one vote in the TCD Seanad election.
