Preserving Peatlands Is Vital to Climate Change Mitigation Efforts
Peatlands are expected to shift from an overall "sink" (absorbing carbon) to a source this century, primarily due to human impacts across the tropics. Preserving the world's peatlands – and the vast carbon stores they contain – is therefore vital to limiting climate change, researchers say.
