When peatlands are drained or disturbed, the stored carbon is released - and there's no getting it back! (4/5)

A quarter of those climate-critical peatlands are in Canada. Canada's peatlands alone store more carbon than all the trees of the Amazon rainforest 🍃 (3/5)

Despite covering only 3% of the globe's surface, peatlands contain over a quarter of all terrestrial carbon (2/5)

Join us in protecting bats - your support makes all the difference 🤎

Help us give bats in Canada the support they need to survive and thrive: https://f.mtr.cool/yjzmsslzhi (4/4)

New research from WCS and WCS Canada has shown why proactive action matters. By combining science, policy, community, and outreach - a One Health approach - we can boost bats’ chances of recovery before it’s too late 🧪 (3/4)

Because bats reproduce slowly, they can’t rely on evolution alone to survive new pressures - from disease to habitat loss. (2/4)

Ahead of #BatWeek, help us reach our $10,000 goal to keep bats, and the ecosystems they support, alive and thriving in Canada.
