Galway Bay fm newsroom - Over 15 tonnes of rubbish has been removed across the city as part of an awareness campaign to highlight illegal dumping.
The initiative - entitled 'It's Not in Our Nature - Is it in Yours?' is being led by Galway City Council.
The campaign has identified and targeted key dumping black spots and aims to develop a strategy to deter dumping at these locations.
Areas cleaned to date under the plan include Sliabh Ban, Ballybane and the Dyke Road.
