How might efforts to restore the UK's peatlands make better use of the knowledge and expertise of local communities and landowners?   With support from @policybristol.bsky.social, we've just released a policy briefing on exactly this question! Check it out here: www.bristol.ac.uk/policybristo...

Two members of the @leverhulme.ac.uk Peatscapes project were involved in this recent article published in #geoforum. Great to team up with like-minded scholars looking critically at efforts to scale up peatland restoration globally!

Essential reading for all those interested in peatland protection and restoration. Carbon credits as currently structured are ineffective for funding peatland restoration - but if effective, they could be actively harmful.

Last week, members of the Peatscapes team staged a public forum on the future of peatland restoration in the Somerset village of Burtle. The event brought together representatives of environmental charities, rewilding groups, local residents, parish councillors, farmers and former peat extractors.

This week, we were excited to present our research to social scientists in #Estonia, led by Roosa Rytkönen at Tallinn University. It was a great opportunity to share knowledge amidst intense expert and public disputes on the large-scale #rewetting of Estonia's forested #peatlands. @leverhulme.ac.uk

Last week, our very own Roosa Rytkönen was guest speaker at the University of Freiburg's lecture series on ‘Healing, Repair and Ecological Restoration: Interdisciplinary Dialogues on Planetary Health’! Roosa spoke to contestations around forestry-drained peatland restoration in Estonia and Finland.
