#TonightVMTV Can anyone explain where ‘Environment’ has disappeared to in new Gov?

Have they have lumped National Parks & Wildlife Service, Biodiversity Data Centre and our Natural heritage into the Housing department??
It would be like putting our hospitals under 'Tourism'!!

Thanks all!
Millie has been found safe and sound

Want to contribute to vital biodiversity data? And you can do this in your own garden. Watch a 50x50cm patch of flowers for 10 minutes and record how many insects visit. Easy! We have great resources to help you. (but wait until temperature is min 13 degC)

CAN would like to share a lovely idea: that Calverstown kids put art work up in their front windows for St Patrick’s Day so kids have something to look at when we go our on our walks (observing social distancing of course).
💚🇮🇪 Tweet us your window pics or share on our Facebook

If your kids get tired of doing their ABC's at home, why not get them outside to SEE-A-BEE 😜🐝🌻🐝 and enter the #AllIrelandPollinatorPlan Twitter Art/Photo competition to win a wildlife book and Bumblebee ID swatch. You'll find lots of inspiration at https://t.co/qFwsncSuO4
