An amazing documentary and very poignant considering how much we have lost.
An amazing documentary and very poignant considering how much we have lost.
@NatureNymph @boucherhayes This was the only pair that was found in the NPWS survey coordinated by @KerryeagleMee in 2023, a 45 minute hike to the site on the boundary if Glenveagh National Park and a dozen sheep were grazing close to the nest. If we can't protect sites like these, we have no hope.
I think about this a lot
What if this existential crisis we're facing is actually inviting us to an existential catharsis where we accelerate our understanding of the fact that we are an integral part of the web of life?
Allowing the hen harrier go extinct just so Coillte can hold on to their bottom line reminds me of how freshwater pearl mussels were consigned to extinction in the south and east to allow for dairy expansion
The beautifully illustrated National Biodiversity Action Plan was published today & with a lot of fanfare & welcoming. But from an initial read I'm not convinced. I wish I could be more excited & optimistic, but I'm just not. Here's a few things that jumped out at me. 🧵
This is an incredibly serious allegation against an Irish state agency. A research body spending taxpayers money on disinformation at the behest of international lobbyists? 1/3 @Independent_ie @irishexaminer @IrishTimes @teagasc theguardian.com/environment/20…
incredibly grateful to be longlisted with such a wide array of voices and stories!

That one of these messages is seen as unacceptable, and it's not the one that's backed by science, is truely perverse
63% of 🇮🇪's wild bird species=red or amber listed birds of conservation concern(farmland birds⬇️ fastest w/recently common spp in trouble 2), 1/3 wild bee species threatened w/extinction, 85% of 🇮🇪Intlly impt habitats in poor condtn. Restoration key/needs farmer/fisher buy in.
NEW MAP AVAILABLE: 'Targeting Agricultural Measures' Our Water Framework Directive work focuses on what are the significant pressures on water quality in Ireland and identifying the right measure in the right place to fix these. Agriculture is the most significant pressure.
Aimé Césaire's brief "Discourse on Colonialism", published in the 1950s, is one of the most powerful and necessary texts you will ever encounter. This passage in particular has remained with me since I first read the book almost twenty years ago:
#PPOD: A close-up view of #CometZTF during 19th January 2023. Besides featuring a wonderful greenish coma and rare anti-tail, something unusual was happening with the long ion tail, what is called a disconnection event. Credit: © Miguel Claro | buff.ly/3ZX7hnu
A damning, but accurate, indictment of the Irish forestry model: “[The Commission] has previously drawn attention to risks of inappropriate afforestation of sensitive habitats such as peatlands and negative effects on areas of high ecological value" irishexaminer.com/news/arid-4105…
Book of the Dead: The Species Declared Extinct in 2022 So many species gone forever because of human demands for more and more economic growth that is driving the greatest extinction in 252 million years therevelator.org/species-extinc…
"that so many of us have never gone wild camping is precisely why this campaign matters.... If something has been reduced to the point where there is only one instance left, it becomes easier for those in power to let it slip into oblivion entirely." newstatesman.com/environment/20…
The first species of our #Couchto10mosses is the lovely Wall Screw-moss (Tortula muralis), a really common, cushion-forming species that loves hanging out on - you guessed it - walls! Here are three key features to look out for: (1/8)
While it might seem obvious that the pursuit of higher yields will 'spare land' for nature, this new study finds the opposite is often true - intensification engenders agricultural expansion, fuelling land conversion and deforestation. Oops. link.springer.com/article/10.100…
finding the most interesting radical frameworks and discourse around ecological thought in science fiction and speculative fiction lately. more arresting than reports. could our innate ability to imagine new stories decentre and redefine our ideas of humanness
thinking of these deep sea organisms at the bottom of the sea off japan while i go about my daily routine, what are they up to right now? what is my relation to them youtu.be/4V6rTvN7drA?t=…

@persianjewess @Byoussef We would any Palestinian be forced to leave their homeland? Is it because the zionist apartheid Israeli occupation regime said so? Palestinians are the original inhabitants & the rightful owners of Palestine. They’re not going anywhere, regardless if Egypt open the border or not.
@noonan_malcolm @NPWSIreland and as you can guess I'd only be delighted to accept 😃, but it's not just about convincing me, anybody should be able to see what's happening and scrutinise the value of works for themselves.
Guess who's back....?!!!!!!
National Park= bringing private land into public ownership - the designation has little legal effect beyond that. Let’s have that promised legislation! @whittledaway What's the point of a new national park if we're not preserving nature? thejournal.ie/readme/conor-p…
Some recent pro-Palestinian tweets went viral, so I got to be exposed to pro-Israeli accounts, some real people, some trolls. And they exhibit behaviour I remember from the good (not good) days of Holocaust denial in Europe in the 1980s. A short 🧵 which will please no one. 1/
@AgrilandIreland @noonan_malcolm So it's not really a natural park at all.
@AgrilandIreland @noonan_malcolm Great - let's continue overgrazing at the tax payers expense. What was waste of €12million...the sheep farmers should have paid for it...
@AgrilandIreland @noonan_malcolm What was point of acquiring the land if nothing is going to change? Arable farming should be completely restricted from public land. Allow rewilding and increase biodiversity please.
@noonan_malcolm It's either a park or an area of agriculture land . It can't be both. Your fooling nobody.
@noonan_malcolm And what has primarily caused that degradation? Sheep. So removing them is a very obvious prerequisite to repairing the ecology, not *more* sheep grazing.
The state has shown that it is neither willing nor able to prioritise nature conservation in the national parks that we have. Why would the latest addition be any different? jrnl.ie/6361454
So the Irish state spends €12 million buying land, designates it a national park, and then ... Announces it will allow sheep to continue to graze away virtually all diverse life. What a *total* farce.
Minister @noonan_malcolm tells @AgrilandIreland that farming will continue as before following the launch of Ireland’s newest national park and first marine park in west Kerry. The park has cost the State €12m to acquire.
