A landmark moment for the peat-free mission 🌿

Beneath our feet, peatlands are doing extraordinary things. 🌍
Bogs, fens & marshes lock away carbon and support unique wildlife like these species here.
But peat extraction destroys this balance, and the wildlife too.
Spring is waking up the peatlands! 🌱
Did you know peatlands are home to a wide variety of plants? From fluffy Cottongrass to insect‑catching Butterwort, there’s plenty to spot at this time of year. Swipe through to meet the species that make peatlands so uniquely alive. ✨
