The Cloughjordan Ecovillage features on the 'European Atlas of Environmental Change and Climate Communities'
Sponsored by the European Environment Agency (EEA) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP, the Atlas initiative focuses on the impacts of climate change and responses taken by “climate communities” across Europe. The project was presented at the UNFCCC CoP-15 in Copenhagen in December 2009.
