Did you know: Mangroves and coastal wetlands 💧 can annually sequester carbon at a rate 10x greater than mature tropical forests 🌴.

This makes their restoration a fantastic potential source for carbon offsets ⚖️.

Plastic may be warming the planet more than we thought Most models haven’t accounted for how microplastics may increase global warming by disrupting natural cycles that store carbon.

Great to welcome Prof Adrian Parker and Dr @ashparton from @oxford_brookes with another group of students to learn about the Lye Valley. They took a couple of peat cores which they'll analyse once back in the lab. #fieldwork #OutdoorLaboratory #OX3 #CarbonStore #OxfordshireFens

The Role of Peatlands for the Climate - ClimaTalk - Climate is Talking Peatlands, though only covering around 3% of the world’s landmass, are crucial for Earth’s climate. As they produce the prestage of lignite, they currently store double as much carbon as all the world’s forests combined.
