Priceless: @metanutter from @VNPpeat reflects on this morning's workshop from a peat bog! One more reason to value our bogs - blowing away the cobwebs (with an emphasis on the blowing bit)

“Across the EU, 30 percent of agricultural emissions come from peatland, with the Union the second-largest source of peatland emissions after Indonesia.” Strong legislation is helping to defend Indonesia’s pristine #peatlands @the_ecologist @profmarkreed @DiannaKopansky

I write for @the_ecologist about peatlands at #COP24. A crucial landuse issue on which Indonesia is showing real leadership. Germany, UK & other EU states have a lot to do. @griefswaldmoor @IUCNpeat @irishpeat @MarkAvery theecologist.org/2018/dec/11/da…

Farmers, land managers, foresters, wardens, gamekeepers et al. Take note! Engage, feedback, ask!

Defra say we should think about their policy trajectory in terms of "public interventions for public value" rather than a strict interpretation of "public money for public goods"
