Coastline Survey Coastwatch Ireland are looking for people to survey lines of coastlines for a report to be sent to the EU in December. The survey includes water quality, biodiversity, litter etc and they provide kits and info, plus questionnaires. John Farrelly has agreed to survey the Gormonstown- Ballbriggan Coast line. As it is a long line of coast he is looking for some help. We will be meeting at the Huntsmans Inn car park 1pm Sat 9th Oct where we will have a briefing on requirements etc. All equipment supplied. We will then divide into groups to survey the following: |

What about Greystones?
This sort of of objective science-based research that involves the people affected by pollution , and links them up with experts in the field of bio-diversity etc is very important ,not only for the environment but for real democracy , in my opinion.
I'd like to see the model extended to examine the causes and effects of the recent banking crash.
Hi Paula,
Email me and I will send you the survey. It can be done anywhere with just a few people. We were hampered by very high tides on Saturday and went back a few hours later but it was still extremely high so we just managed to get water samples from the Delvin and read through the questionnaire which was very informative and educational. We intend to make this a regular event at Bremore either monthly or bimonthly to monitor litter, pollution, water changes etc.
This particular survey was done all over the EU from Sweden to the Balkans so it was nice to feel a part of something which may have a positive effect on the environment eventually. Many thanks again to John Farrelly for instigating this and we look forward to doing it again shortly, dates to follow.
