Working with great team led by Jess Williams-Mounsey to demonstrate one use of peat bog microtopography in habitat and impact evaluation: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S03…

Richard Lindsay UN Climate Change BBC News (UK) I agree - Forests mentioned 2080 times and peat just 167 - despite peatlands storing waaaaay more carbon then forests.

Here I use the 'Scroll bar visual metric'

Multiple evidence that we continue to overlook a key solution sitting in plain sight: 1. IPCC Report still mostly blind to peatlands and in thrall to forests. 2. Irony of CC plant in Iceland sitting within (apparently invisible) peatland UN Climate Change BBC News (UK) bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

Will the #IPCC Working Group III report step up to the plate for #peat or will it continue to be in thrall to #forests and overlook the greater opportunities offered by #peat lands ? Great lead from #PeatEllis

Great comments in the Guardian Environment article Dianna Kopansky After 30 years of campaigning Craig Bennett IUCN UK Peatlands we may finally be seeing twilight and demise of horticultural #peat . Extraordinary that Bord na Móna is now ahead of Defra UK and UK Government Scotland

Great animation, also now available in Latest News Gallery of Virtual Peatland Pavilion Library: storage.net-fs.com/hosting/614706…

Absolutely delighted to meet Chris Packham at our #PeatlandPavilion at #COP26 Chris was very generous with his time, and explored the world's peatlands via our VR platform created by Richard Lindsay explore for yourselves here: tinyurl.com/3xk8485s

Thank you for visiting us at the #PeatlandPavilion #COP26 , Inger Andersen! And thank you for encouraging a next #Peatlandpavilion at #COP27 . Indeed, now we have startend with it! And #PeatlandsMatter .

Lorna Slater in our #Peatlandpavilion #COP26Glasgow closing session: #Peatlands touch on all of it - green skills, circular economy, biodiversity. And climate! And we drain them, so they emit rather than sequester CO2...

“It now seems inconceivable that there would not be a #PeatlandPavilion at the next COP. Is this the start of a whole new frontier for #peatlands on the world stage? May it live long and prosper” - Richard Lindsay, Uni of East London #COP26 #PeatlandsMatter

We miss you already, team #PeatlandPavilion #COP26 ! This pavilion had a soul, and a sense of purpose. Dianna Kopansky Stuart Brooks Richard Lindsay Hans Schutten Niall O Brolchain @clough_UEL Julie Van Offelen @Sarah_Proctor1 Franziska Tanneberger

INglorious, as this activity depends on wiping out protected wildlife - eagles, harriers, falcons & more. It's a wildlife-damaging, climate-damaging hobby & it ought to follow many other traditions into history's dustbin.

Excellent informative shocking inspiring #HenHarrierDay2021 from Wild Justice. Great work from the team (including Fabian behind camera and editing suite). Link to watch, and do please sign the #eaction wildjustice.org.uk/general/if-you…

Good point Miles King - I'm not sure how many peatland papers I recall being written by Prof. Crabbe...

#HenHarrierDay with Wild Justice starting at 10 a.m. today, with a slot including me talking about impact of #burning on #blanketbog #peatland .

Thoroughly well deserved and earned Stuart Connop - but does this mean I now have to call you 'Sir'?

If only those involved in this article did indeed understand Latvian #peat . A piece framed to promote an environmentally devastating and unsustainable industry rather than promote true understanding of #peat lands. Swimming against the tide of events... eng.lsm.lv/article/societ…

Highlighting the dubious environmentally beneficial claims of #blandscapes rather than truly #ecofunctional and #biodiverse #greeninfrastructure , UEL SRI colleagues throw down a challenge to all involved in urban infrastructure: theconversation.com/ecomimicry-the…

Cows with (in effect) #satnav and an integrated approach to #blanketbog #restoration - interesting, exciting times for #peatlands theguardian.com/environment/20…
