Limerick Greyhound Stadium's commitment to Climate Action extends beyond its core operations to embrace biodiversity enhancement. As part of this commitment, the installation of bat boxes and insect motels represents a proactive step towards fostering local ecosystems and promoting biodiversity.
Bat boxes have been strategically positioned throughout the stadium's grounds, providing shelter for bats, and aiding in their conservation efforts. Bats play a crucial role in controlling insect populations, thus contributing to natural pest management and ecological balance.
Insect motels complement the bat boxes by providing habitats for various insect species. These structures offer refuge and breeding sites for beneficial insects such as pollinators and predators, supporting the overall health of the ecosystem. Increased insect diversity also sustains food webs and enhances the resilience of local flora and fauna.
Through these initiatives, Limerick Greyhound Stadium hope to not fulfil its environmental responsibilities but also inspire others to take proactive steps towards biodiversity conservation. By promoting the coexistence of humans and wildlife, the stadium sets an example of sustainable development and underscores the importance of preserving natural habitats in the face of climate change.
