The exciting news just keeps on coming here at Cloudforests. Today, we are announcing our intention to Undertake the role of a Conservation Area for Apis mellifera mellifera (Native Irish Honey Bees) in partnership with the Native Irish Honey Bee Society (N.I.H.B.S).

Today we are 025. A very big welcome to Pioneer Security who join our CoolPartner community today 03.02.22.

We’re excited to share the news that Netcelero, our amazing Cool Partner 010, has redesigned their entire website, as part of a larger rebranding…and we think it looks brilliant!

A new Axis Communications IP HD CCTV bullet camera fitted last week will stream high definition video from our gift tree woodland starting next week.

A new members area that is under construction on our website will allow all our gift tree members to see live video, get regular updates and virtually visit the gift tree area. This area is being prepared for planting in March and will feature Oak, Rowan, Alder, and Birch trees.

Rowan Trees are an often overlooked native Irish tree. Although they are smaller than many other native trees, this does not make them any less beautiful. Typically they grow to a height of about 15 meters. In Irish, Rowan tree can be translated as Caorthann, which is also the Irish Translation for Mountain Ash. This is due to the fact that their leaves are very similar to the common ash tree, however, the trees are not related in any way.

For the month of February, we put it to you to take on 28 minutes of exercise for 28 consecutive days. It’s not only our physical health we need to look after, but our mental health too. By taking this on as a group, we will motivate, encourage and probably laugh quite a lot. Run, walk, crawl, take the dog out, take the kids out, dance, jump, swim, whatever takes your fancy.

USEE.ie (Cool Partner 001) have announced they have promoted Michele Pender to CEO. Michele has been with Usee since the very start and has been a key component in the operations of Usee. She will now lead the team in her new role as CEO.

The Alder Tree (Alnus glutinosa) is a native Irish tree, which has quite a history in Irish Folklore and History. It even has played a role in the naming of a number of Irish towns and villages. For example, Ballyfarnon (Béal Átha Fearnáin) in Country Roscommon translates to Mouth of the Ford of the Alder, and County Wexford, the town of Ferns comes from the Irish Word; Fearna (Alder Trees).

There is no doubt about it; forestry is an underutilized weapon in the fight against Carbon Emissions, especially in Ireland. This point has recently been underlined by Forest Industries Ireland (FII), who have said forestry could potentially provide over 300 million tonnes of additional carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration by 2050

A big thank you to the first 21, we hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year! See you all at Armada Hotel Spanish Point for super Twosday. The journey has begun to create one hundred forests for the planet along Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way!
