Citizens’ Assembly on Biodiversity Loss

A Citizens’ Assembly on Biodiversity Loss, made up of an independent Chairperson and 99 members of the public, was convened in 2022 to examine how Ireland can improve its response to biodiversity loss, and to bring forward proposals for action.

Here is my submission to the Citizens’ Assembly on behalf of Friends of Ardee Bog. You can read all the submissions here.

UPDATE: On Sunday, November 27th the Citizens’ Assembly voted overwhelmingly to recommend that there should be a constitutional referendum to amend the Constitution with a view to protecting biodiversity. GOOD NEWS! Let’s see what the government does with the 120 recommendations from the CABL.
