The exhibition aims to raise awareness of the threats to this habitat and the need for conservation of its biodiversity.The exhibition is a joint project between the Environment and Heritage Service, National Parks and Wildlife Service and the Irish Wildlife Trust.

This is a European - wide festival aimed at raising public awareness of geoconservation and promotion of geological heritage.
