Clare’s natural sites to be documented

FAMOUS for the Burren and the Cliffs of Moher, Co Clare has many other natural attractions, which will soon be documented in a bid to aid their preservation.

Communities and individuals throughout Clare are being asked to co-operate with a biodiversity action plan to record habitats and species.

In simple terms, biodiversity is the variety of plant and animal life and the areas in which they live, from a garden patch to the world at large. It also includes human life, crops, the air we breathe, the food we eat and the water we drink.
