  The articles I have written involved researching policy issues and identifying data and trends in relation to environment issues. These articles have been very popular and have been shared by groups such as An Taisce, the Irish Wildlife Trust, Bird Watch Ireland and other environmental groups. I was one of the founders and original contributors of the Greennews.ie (news site of the Irish Environmental Network (IEN) and the Environmental Pillar) which was the winner of the best Education & Science category and was also placed 2nd for the Current Affairs Category at the Littlewoods Ireland Blog Awards 2016. I also write articles for Bioweb.ie (a website for enthusiasts of environmental, zoological and botanical-related fields). My articles are located in the publication section of this page.
