The ban on the use of horticultural peat will be debated in the House of Commons today. Along with our many partners, we're calling on the Govt. to keep peat in a bog & not in a bag

After recent stories that nearly all UK mushrooms are grown on peat - we need the law to change to ban horticultural peat and use alternatives. Peatlands can be a vital carbon sink and support key wildlife.

Grazing, Peat, Erosion and Emissions!
If you're at come along to S42 Hall 2B at 11:45 to hear all about how we've been trying to estimate emissions from these peatlands!

(Or to see at least one picture of a penguin)

Straight from the overnight ferry to do some bog bothering in Belfast before using it as a last bit of inspiration before my talk on all things carbon in Falkland peat on Friday

are home to some weird and wonderful wildlife, including carnivorous plants such as this Round-leaved Sundew.

They have suffered much from historic drainage and overgrazing, but restoration works are now helping a number of sites to recover.

I had such a great time today on the IUCN UK Peatlands field trip to Wicken Fen and a Fenland SOIL member farm site, learning about peatland in the Fens and the challenges that landowners face in managing it.
