With 66% of the vote - sphagnum moss has taken the win #WetlandCup

5 reasons why peat is powerful: 1) Peat is 50% carbon. That C was taken out of the atmosphere by plants and soils and put into ecological lockdown. Let's keep it there. 2) Peat archives everything from past climate to archeological records. Peat = information we need. 1/

3) Peat holds a lot of water, protecting not only peatlands but ENTIRE landscapes from drought. 4) While peat can burn, it protects ecosystems from severe burning. More peat = good 🔥 5) Peat promotes diversity & strange critters that make our world beautiful & interesting. 2/2

Round 29 of the #WetlandCup is raised bog vs. beaver wetland! Who will you send through to the FINAL?! Please give it a RT so we can get as many votes as possible

Round 30 of the #WetlandCup is sphagnum moss vs. patterned fen! Who do you want to see in the final? Vote below!

This is important. #voteforsphagnum

Mosses make up most of the diversity in northern regions and often more than 50% of ecosystem productivity and carbon uptake from the atmosphere. Tiny superheroes. Where are my moss lovers?

This amazing figure from yesterday's #IPCC report shows the potential of different approaches to mitigate climate change It exposes two common misconceptions about 'natural climate solutions' 1/

Wildfire smoke is stretching from Illinois to Italy. Hundreds of wildfires in Canada have already scorched twice as much land as what typically burns in an entire season, according to the Canadian Wildland Fire Information System. Get the view from space: bit.ly/3NTlQV6

2023 now is in first place for area burned in BC since 1950. Surprisingly, most of the fire season is ahead of us and we have already passed the recent record-breaking years of 2017 and 2018. wildfiresituation.nrs.gov.bc.ca/currentStatist…
