Peatlands and bogs the best weapon we have against climate change & locking away carbon. Peatlands are Cumbrias most important carbon store. They store five times as much carbon as all Cumbrias trees put together. But our peatlands need our help.

Story

Peatlands are Cumbrias most important carbon store. They store five times as much carbon as all Cumbrias trees put together. But our peatlands need our help. That's why I'm fundraising to do just that! Please help me to help fight climate change. Lack of care has left peatlands and bogs a brown and broken wasteland leaking carbon, that has been locked away for thousands of years, back in into our warming atmosphere. Carbon that needs to be kept stored away for the health of our planet. Cumbria Wildlife Trust is healing these broken landscapes returning our peatlands and bogs back into healthy, vibrant habitats that keep the carbon locked in the ground. I want to help them in the fight against climate change. To help repair and protect Cumbrias peatlands.
