Despite three record years of coral growth, the mainstream media keeps pushing doom and gloom on the Great Barrier Reef ? a story that doesn't quite add up, says the Daily Sceptic's Environment Editor.

Is there any update on this? How many attended? Who spoke? What networking came out of it?

I can find nothing on it on the websites of The Irish Times, The Irish Independent, The Irish Examiner. RTE.ie have a link to it from Six-One but it's not opening for me (reporting that "thousands" took to the streets).

Mark.

I'm not very good at gauging numbers at marches, but RTÉ said there were 8,000. I'd say they weren't far off the mark. Great turnout for the location. There would have been more if it had been in Sligo or Letterkenny but Donegal was chosen because it's the heartland of Tánaiste Mary Coughlan's constituency.
There should be a huge turnout in Dublin next weekend.

Hopefully there'll be a huge turnout in Dublin next weekend. I've heard mention that about 100,000 are expected.
