Climate change is increasingly affecting Ireland’s water resources through more frequent
flooding, heavier rainfall, drought periods, and rising temperatures.

waters are currently classified as being in good or high ecological status, highlighting
the challenges facing water quality management across the country.

expertise on how climate change is influencing Ireland’s water environment and what can be
done to protect it.
