Peat bogs - habitats that needs more conservation attention, as they are so important for carbon storage, flood control and wildlife habitat.
It’s #WorldPeatLandsDay! Peatlands make up ~ 2% of NB's land mass, contain unique species, like the Pitcher Plant, purify water and store huge amounts of carbon. To learn more check out this 🎥 of researcher Sean Blaney exploring a peatland in southern NB. cbc.ca/player/play/176306848…
