2010 International Year of Biodiversity
4 January 2010
The United Nations declared 2010 to be the International Year of Biodiversity. It is a celebration of life on earth and of the value of biodiversity for our lives. The world is invited to take action in 2010 to safeguard the variety of life on earth: biodiversity.
The International Year of Biodiversity is a unique opportunity to increase understanding of the vital role that biodiversity plays in sustaining life on Earth.
Conservation Volunteers have a range of practical activities organised for you to get involved in and help biodiversity.
Many of Northern Ireland’s habitats and species are threatened, but can be helped by lots of little actions that each of us can contribute towards.
Keep looking at our upcoming opportunities to volunteer on our website to see how you can help our biodiversity.
