Thread 1/5:- Why is @IrishTimes & @IrishTimesHome allowing Hugh Wallace @ArchitectHugh call for the destruction of Dublin’s treasured wilderness wetlands & bird habitats in Dublin Bay? @dublinbaybiospere @birdwatchie @noonan_malcolm @NatureRTE irishtimes.com/property/resid…
2/5 BirdWatch Ireland, Irish Wildlife Trust, NPWS & DPE Environment & Heritage must say Special Areas of Conservation & Special Protection Areas under EU Habitats directive are safe - forever! @birdwatchie, @irishwildlife @npwsbiodata @nswenviromedia @noonen_malcolm @naturenymph
3/5 Not first time @IrishTimes & @IrishTimesHome have allowed architects like @ArchitectHugh & David Browne @rkdarchitects & @RIAIOnline advocate environmental destruction in Dublin Bay - and in Cork Harbour too this time! To keep auctioneer advertisers sweet?? @CorkNatNetwork
4/5 Latest spiel comes only weeks after World Wildlife fund tells us we have destroyed two thirds of the planet’s wildlife! And now the #PaperofRecord @irishtimes @RuadhanIT says destroy Dublin Bay as well?? wwf.panda.org/wwf_news/?7938… @ExtinctRebelsIE @Bullislandacti1 @BioDataCentre
5/5 Please, please retweet this thread and strongly but POLITELY tell @ArchitectHugh and the @IrishTimes @RuadhanIT – NO to destruction of Dublin Bay. Crazy anyway with rising seas!! @whittledaway @AnTaisce #environmentalvandalismbyarchitects
#environmantalvandalismbyIrishTimes
6/5 - sorry should have been @dublinbiosphere in first tweet of the thread!
7/5 - forgot link to previous @IrishTimes call for destruction of @dublinbiosphere by David Browne @rkdarchitects & former pres. Royal Institute of Architects of Ireland @RIAIOnline in tweet 3 of thread. Here it is - cos I'm not making it up! You couldn't! irishtimes.com/news/environme…
8/5 @ArchitectHugh advocating environmental vandalism in print today @IrishTimes #stillnotmakingitup! Guess he wants "sleek minimalist" Dublin Bay! @dublinbiosphere. NOT how nature works! Right of Reply @RuadhanIT to me or @NatureNymph of @BirdWatchIE? #marvellousmud @NatureRTE
9/5! I should have included @COSullivanTD in this thread too! Please put in a word with @noonan_malcolm & @MichealMartinTD. And gis a shout if you ever have a free hour for #birding in The Pale - before @ArchitectHugh concretes it over!! It's nearly as good as #WestCork!
@COSullivanTD @noonan_malcolm @MichealMartinTD @ArchitectHugh 10/5🙄Tnx @bomah for link Harry Crosbie's equally mad idea! Time for @PatKennyNT to let nature lovers explain why destroying Dublin Bay is daft during biodiversity & climate change (rising sea levels) crises. @BirdsMatter_ie @KOSullivanIT @think_or_swim goloudplayer.com/episodes/harry…
