What is green Wave?

The Green Wave is a multi-year global campaign that enables children and youth to make a difference - one school, one tree, one step at a time. The Green Wave brings together children and youth from around the world to raise awareness about biodiversity, and the need to reduce its loss. The Green Wave contributes to the Plant for the Planet Billion Tree Campaign.

As part of our Green Wave project this year we have been monitoring sightings of the Ash, Hawthorn, Horsechestnut trees and the Primrose. We have also been keeping an eye out for the appearance of the Swallow. We observed frog spawn. We contributed our findings to the Green Wave Web Site on a regular basis where they are mapped and analysed. We can see if spring moves from south to north across Ireland or inland from coast to centre.
