This is so important around Europe, but particularly important in Ireland, which only had 2% forest cover, but now was up to 11%. They want to get it up to at least 40%. Ireland is a temperate oceanic climate and at one time had rainforest. Bringing back the native species is so important. I’m a member of Reforest Nation which plants native species throughout Ireland 32 counties such an important work
Over seas travel is always researched and planned. Especially because we can't travel over seas as much as we would like so we want to make the most of our time while there. I don't like feeling like I'm waisting time just 'winging it'. So lots of planning is involved. I loved this day! Even with the rain, we really enjoyed ourselves.
