New biodiversity and invasive species action plans have been launched for Galway City.
Galway City Council's biodiversity plan covers until 2030 and sets out a framework for protecting the city's large and diverse range of habitats and wildlife.
The invasive species strategy covers the same period and outlines a plan to deal with non-native species that threaten wildlife, habitats and the environment.
Both sets of plans were launched at Galway City Museum this morning - where fourth class students of Mercy Primary school preformed two original songs.
