Pond

A COMPREHENSIVE SERIES OF ARTICLES ON THIS TOPIC

<p>Anja Murray: "Creating a pond is one of the most effective ways to combat declining diversity across Irish landscapes. Ponds and wetlands have been rapidly disappearing in recent decades despite an abundance of lakes and small water bodies. One academic study estimates that 90% of all wetlands across Ireland are now gone. Pond creation is a creative, rewarding and surprisingly effective way to make space for aquatic ecosystems that have been made so unwelcome across their former range."</p>
