Bog restoration in action this week by Bord na Móna. Drain blocking helps restore the raised bog, benefiting both the community and the wildlife that depend on it.

Out on Oxford Bog in Kiltimagh, Mayo where we were surveying vegetation within quadrats as part of our Mayo Bogs Project - thanks to generous funding from Community Foundation Ireland!

Good news on #bogRestoration. The EPA and Bord na Móna funded WET-PEAT project supports Bord na Móna in restoration of over 33,000 hectares of peatlands using modelling techniques to show how restoration measures can be improved #TócharStories

This is very relevant for Irish peatlands, too. With a number of peatland restoration projects underway, will we be able to mitigate the climate change effects or will the habitat be greatly impacted regardless?
