Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Forestry and Climate Change: Discussion
Mr. Mark Carlin:
I would like to build on the point made by Dr. Hendrick. The afforestation with Bord na Móna will be managed carefully. We will take the best ecological advice. We are looking at developing wilderness forest using native species like birch and Scots pine. This will be done with the best ecological advice.
