📢We're excited to have collaborated with Climate Catalyst, WaterLANDS and others to develop the #InvestingInPeatlands publication, a comprehensive guide to the vast potential of #peatland restoration as a holistic and financially rewarding investment at landscape scale.

Yesterday was the 2nd birthday of #WaterLANDSH2020 !

We celebrate 2 years of new connections, exciting fieldwork & diverse research on policy, ecology, finance and engagement for large scale wetland restoration.

THANK YOU to our strong partnership #restoring #wetlands ! 💚🌊🌍🌱

Time to make the change. Who's on board?

Check out the interview with PFI co-founder Shane Mc Guinness out now on The Currency!

To restore peatlands at scale, we need to unlock private finance.

'Our ambition is great, but so is the financial requirement' says Dr Shane Mc Guinness

Thanks to Niall Sargent 🕵️ for the feature!

We have had a busy few days of learning! At ICSA's Farmers Meeting, Stuart Gee presented on the carbon farming framework. The theme of carbon credits continued at the Peatland Finance Ireland workshop with WaterLANDS - an important topic often asked about by project farmers.

🌱So much peaty goodness in Dublin during the 2-day #Peatland Finance Knowledge-Sharing and Learning Workshop this week. Thank you to everyone who came and contributed - more reflections coming soon!
