€2.5m for environmental projects at Galway Universities

Funding of €2.5m has been announced to support eight environmental and climate projects at the University of Galway and ATU Galway.

The funding from the EPA aims to address the research needs of policy makers in Government on a wide range of topics.

In effect, this is complex and practical research, on which the Government will make decisions on new measures to tackle climate change and environmental challenges.

Acting Director of Research at the University of Galway, Louise Hannon, outlines two of their successful projects.
