Peatlands across Northern Ireland are the beneficiaries of a new cross-border funding to support biodiversity and climate resilience, which includes the Sperrin Mountains, the Mourne Mountains and the Cuilcagh Bog in Co. Fermanagh (home to the famous Stairway to Heavan Cuilcagh Trail).These sites have been highlighted amidst a total of 19 as priority areas for conservation investment aimed at enhancing habitats, protecting wildlife and strengthening natural systems in the face of environmental pressures.The programme has been backed by recent government and environmental partnership commitments, is part of a broader strategy to improve nature recovery and tackle climate change in ecosystems across the island of Ireland.Ulster Wildlife have played and will continue to do so, a pivotal role in delivering and coordinating conservation efforts on the ground, working with local communities and land managers to ensure these iconic places are safeguarded for future generations, and for the many walkers and outdoor enthusiasts who visit them.For more information on the investment, visit Ulster Wildlife.The post Northern Ireland Peatlands to be Restored appeared first on WalkNI.
