Young people who love nature and the outdoors were invited to take part in a summer writing challenge this year. After a successful launch year in the Isle of Man in 2020, The Young Nature Blogger 2021 went international as Kerry Biosphere and Dublin Bay Biosphere joined the competition. The overall international winner was announced earlier this week.
Young Nature Blogger began in 2020 as an initiative by UNESCO Biosphere Isle of Man. This year, Dublin Bay and Kerry Biospheres have joined in; running their own local challenges, with entrants aged 21 and under invited to submit up to 500 words on their own favourite place, animal or experience in nature. The Kerry Biosphere competition closed on September 24th after receiving 70 entries from all over Ireland.
