Rent, doing the full history of the starlings in Limerick City, explaining about how they're eating food from all over Limerick and then depositing the nitrogen in this one street, talking about how I view the flock of starlings not as a flock of birds but as a novel, because that the birds' behavior can tell me about the history of the land, and explaining about how that was in. voice-verified
inspired by indigenous Australian ways of looking at the land and telling stories, but anyway the whole time I'm doing it. voice-verified
There's one member of Limerick City Council, and he's really, really fucking listening to me, and he's fascinated. voice-verified
Cause I start talking about what I would like to see on this street in Limerick City is to install these bioswells, these artificial wetlands that will absorb the shit of the starlings and make it bio-available in the soil, that that's the nature-based solution for this street. voice-verified
And there was this one Limerick City Council fella who's not a councillor, but is like a a professional urban designer. voice-verified
And then he gets talking to me and he says, Did you know we we actually installed a bioswale in Limerick City, like around the corner? voice-verified
Do you want to come and see it? voice-verified
And I'm like, Fuck off. voice-verified
You've installed a bioswale? voice-verified
In Limerick? voice-verified
He's like, yeah, a huge one. voice-verified
Now, bioswale is like I said, it's an artificial wetland. voice-verified
It's a way to naturally stop flooding from rainwater. voice-verified
It doesn't look like anything special from a distance, but when you get up close to it and you look at the way it's laid out and the rocks and the pebbles, and you understand that it has multiple layers and it's designed to use nature to naturally filter dirty water. voice-verified
So we walk around. voice-verified
Around the corner, and we go to Island Road, just outside the gates of St. voice-verified
Mary's National School, where you also have the old medieval walls of Limerick. voice-verified
And a month ago they installed a bioswale and a biodiversity garden full of wildflower. voice-verified
This really beautiful long strip of grass, wildflower. voice-verified
That are gonna fill up with rainwater from the road. voice-verified
