Environment: 'Things are definitely changing - I sense an awakening'

Big solutions are needed for big problems such as plastic pollution, carbon capture and global warming. Irish ecologist and writer, Padraic Fogarty, is the author of 'Whittled Away', a seminal account of the dozens of species we have lost in Ireland down the years; bears, wolves, fish, insects and many more.

In the first of a new feature, he considers one of his 6 'big ideas' for the environmental restoration of Ireland, namely a Shark Park off the northern waters of Ulster. He joined Mark along with Ulster University lecturer, Dr Eamon O'Chiardra.
