We may have missed World Peatlands Day, but it’s never too late to highlight one of the planet’s most powerful carbon sinks.

These ecosystems store massive amounts of carbon and are key to fighting deforestation and climate change

We had so much fun at our half-term event. Children learned all about the importance of #peatlands and its wildlife whilst making edible peat pots, splashing in mud, trying their hands at heritage crafts, pond dipping and making dens. Thank you all for coming! #WorldPeatlandsDay @wildlifebcn.org

This week we recognize World Peatlands Day! POV: You love plants so much that you are open to growing without using peat, which always comes out of amazing wetlands! #WorldPeatlandsDay #endpeatsales 🌿🌰

Les tourbières ne couvrent que 3% de la masse terrestre libre de glace, mais elles contiennent 30% du carbone organique des sols de la planète.

La conservation des tourbières garantit des services écosystémiques qui soutiennent la capacité d'adaptation.

🌍 Peatlands store more carbon than all forests combined. And yet, we drain, burn, and ignore them. Protecting them is climate action. Restoring them is high-return investment. On #WorldPeatlandsDay, let’s keep them wet, intact, and alive.

🌍 Today is World Peatlands Day!
For over 30 years, peatlands have been at the heart of our research — from understanding their ecology to restoring them.

Let’s raise awareness and fall in love with peatlands — because we protect what we love. 💚

These are wonderful! Happy #WorldPeatlandsDay! May the sphagnum be with you! 😊
This #WorldPeatlandsDay we're sharing a new free learning resource all about poetry & peatland, created for our Bog Talk project.

It's #WorldPeatlandsDay!

Did you know, sustainable oil palm growers are required by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil to maintain or restore peatlands in their concession areas?

By choosing only #sustainable #palmoil, we can all help to protect #peatlands!
