Nature in decline
State of Nature 2023 shows that Northern Ireland is now one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world with 12% of species assessed, threatened with extinction. These include rare species such as Basking Shark, Freshwater Pearl Mussel and Irish Damselfly.

Since 1999, the number of species on the Birds of Conservation Concern in Ireland Red List has tripled from 18 to 54 species.

Over the last two decades, these reviews have documented the declining status of Ireland’s bird populations.

The decision on this development in the Lagan Valley Regional Park has been delayed again. Please take a moment to ask everyone you know to sign the petition and share it on your social media. As time passes the importance of stopping this thoughtless development becomes more apparent.

Thankyou for your continuing help and support. 

Thanks too to Roisin for the fab photo of the Silverlines Moth from the development area.
