Did you forget this climate solution?

Peatlands may look ordinary, but they’re hiding a powerful secret – these unassuming areas are the ultimate carbon sinks, pulling carbon from the air like natural purifiers. What if we could build a global movement to harness this power? That’s exactly what we’re aiming to do at our first major event of the year: GLF Peatlands 2024.
