The Beauty of Rewilding: Ireland’s Atlantic Rainforest
This is an interesting documentary about my home country of Ireland. A bit of background information - almost all of Ireland's natural forests were cut down by the British. About 12% of the island of Ireland is currently forested, it was only 1% in the early 1900s. However, true native woodland only comprises 2%, and most of this is managed.

The saddest thing here is that 'disputes' such as this between people who truly value nature in their different ways are meat-and-drink to the climate-change sceptic, anti re-wilding nutters on the right who are the true enemies of all of us.
A serious mis-step by 'IrishRainforest'.

"Whether we realise it or not, we depend totally on natural ecosystems for our very survival".
"By removing them and repressing their return, we're threatening our own future survival."
I was interviewed for this BBC piece on Irish rainforests.

A who’s who of the rainforest. Who leans on whom, who grows on what. Tree or trunk or root or liana? Moss wrapped in lichen wrapped in time. A beautiful chaos. A forest like a slow explosion that never ends. Can’t stop coming back.
