End of Semester Update

Posted 26th May 2025
Author Rachel Beck (President)

As I sign off as EnviroSoc president, I would like to look back at my tenure and marvel at what the Society has achieved. We have had important figures in Irish environmentalism, such as Padraic Fogarty, Grace O'Sullivan, and Dr Áine Lynch as guest speakers. With Liz Gabbett and Yvonne Ryan's help, we were able to organise our incredibly popular Bioblitz in 2024! We have also been on adventures to Galway Atlantaquaria and Phoenix Park, gone kayaking on the River Shannon, conducted litterpicks, grown acorns from seed, and enjoyed plenty of pizza and David Attenborough documentaries! 

In addition, we were delighted this past April when EnviroSoc member James Organ won first place in the UL Sustainability Challenge. Well done also to his fellow society member, Karl Gilmartin, who was a runner-up in the competition. 

The last two years have been challenging, but we've all had a lot of fun and learned a ton of new skills. Thank you so much for having me as your chairperson. I would also like to thank the committee and ordinary members, without whom none of this could have been achieved. I wish the society every success in the coming academic year.

Signing off,

Rachel Beck.

Hi All,


We have many membership requests pending at the moment.

This is because the membership fee has not been paid.

Currently, we are only accepting the payment online.


If you are having any issues, don't be afraid to get in touch,

Climate March

Posted 10th Sep 2019
Author Christopher Asmus

Putting and doing something positive into the universe is better than doing nothing. Even if you aren't the biggest climate activist, simply showing up for the march, voting for people that want to make positive real changes in the name of humanity and not in the name of money, or whatever else. Actions speak louder than words, but even the most simple humbling actions can make the difference. Even if others are being judgmental, remember, they cannot see what is in your heart and you yourself know that you're not simply showing off or going into a room to do nothing meaningful. You are the future, you are our hope, and you are what we need. Why? Because the fate of the planet is at stake, and I want to keep seeing many more friendships bloom, people still being able to have families, and people still being able to find that special someone for many years to come.
