As part of our Dublin City Biodiversity Action Plan, Dublin City Council will support the Tellus Survey, which is being carried out by the Geological Survey of Ireland.
For the next 6 weeks sampling teams will visit over 800 sites in Dublin City to collect soil and vegetation samples.
Leslie Moore, Head of Parks Services, stated “
For the first time, we will be able to get a good picture of what the soils of Dublin City are – our natural resources that we depend upon for biodiversity, growing food, storing water, pollutants and carbon and giving life to the City. Dublin City Council welcomes the opportunity to support this landmark study”.
