Hi All, Polluters and their political allies are quietly weakening laws that protect our drinking water, nature, and health. It's affecting all 450 million of us in Europe. Only takes a minute to sign if you're interested. #HandsOffNature birdwatchireland.ie/our-work/adv...

The petrol station on Old Cabra Rd has been in breach of planning for 6 yrs & then has the neck to use planning laws to delay delivery of bus & bike lanes needed in Cabra. Locals have had enough. Protest for safer streets on Saturday @dublincycling.bsky.social @ibike.ie @dublincommuters.bsky.social

It only took 8 years for govt to put in place a landscape scale programme dedicated to saving Curlew though BirdWatch Ireland has been flagging for so long that this species is on the brink. Hopefully it’s not too little too late. Forestry needs to stay away frm areas impt for Curlew & other waders.
