Reposted by Sharon GreeneAidan O'Sullivan @aidanosullivan.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Myself and Colin Breen have written in "Maritime Ireland" about seaweed harvesting on Ireland's coastline, in 19th century. These are local rights, well known and established through built features (e.g. wrack walls, kilns, etc). There is no way that such rights be taken over by foreign companies.rte.ieCommunities fight 'corporate' bid for seaweed rightsCommunities on Ireland's west coast say they will fight to safeguard their traditional seaweed rights against what they describe as a "corporate takeover "of their livelihoods. 829296
