Think fast: global warming is coming for our heritage Action is needed now to protect and preserve Ireland’s heritage in the face of climate change, but heritage itself can be part of the solution

@ybuckley.bsky.social on how biodiversity is intrinsic to heritage:

"We use ash trees in Ireland to create hurls ... Ash dieback, a disease exacerbated by climate change, is destroying the species. That loss of natural heritage is impacting our cultural heritage"
