Peatlands = biodiversity powerhouses. 🌍💚 From Arctic mosses to tropical swamp forests, they host rare & vital species, regulate water & carbon, and support life globally. But they’re under threat. Protect peatlands, protect our future. 🌿 📚For more info check www.unep.org/resources/re...

Busy Saturday at the @rspbscotland.bsky.social Forsinard Flows-we had 12 photos come through as part of the Tracking the Colour of Peatlands citizen science project. Very useful when multiple people send photos from different phones on same day - can use it to calibrate the analysis #PeatColours

Cheshire Wildlife Trust "We are devastated by this decision. The site is amongst the most valuable and important sites in the county for wildlife, but the inspector has decided that the benefits of a new housing development outweigh the harm to nature."

In our latest blog, Dorset Wildlife Trust's Director of Nature-based Solutions, Imogen Davenport, considers the implications of the Government's latest announcements on planning and development for wildlife in Dorset. 🌱👉 https://buff.ly/3Q1DB4R ~ Jack 📸 James Burland

🌍 For World Wetlands Day we're launching 🚀 the most comprehensive European Wetland Map (EWM) 📅🗺️ yet! It shines a light on • types of wetlands such as peatlands, floodplains and coastal peatlands • their distribution • areas in risk of flooding Download here 👉 zenodo.org/records/1474...

The new theme that Nature blocks ‘growth’ marks a lurch backwards of decades. At this time it’s very important to remember that the failing health our life support system will lead to economic disaster. This paper for e.g. says Nature is worth more than GDP. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

And the importance of data and citizen science here from @bsbibotany.bsky.social - contributing to the broader understanding of #biodiversity #plantdiversity

New paper on bioclimatic envelope modelling of peat in @jappliedecology.bsky.social besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... 1. New projections and tweaks to methods give us higher confidence than previous attempts.

200 #CalderValley constituents have signed this letter to our MP, 630 have signed the Parliamentary petition,unknown numbers have emailed him - all asking the government to ban windfarms on protected peat land in England. Because you can't solve the climate crisis by trashing nature. bit.ly/3ExhbWw

While our recent paper on bioclimatic envelope modelling of peat might seem like doom and gloom, there's plenty to think about in terms of how potential increasing rates of degradation could leave to more carbon finance being available. theconversation.com/most-of-brit...

Where does iRecord data go? How does iNaturalist verification work? What recording app is best for bird observations? These are some of the questions I’ll be covering in this upcoming webinar. @nbntrust.bsky.social @ukceh.bsky.social @btobirds.bsky.social www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/using-wild...

There are so many micro moths in this country to enjoy. This is the Bramble Shoot Moth. Fairly widespread in the UK, look for them in July. Can be attracted to light. Look out for the bold saddle marking. #moths #mothsmatter
