Keep peat in bogs
Peatlands are one of our most important habitats, providing homes for rare wildlife and locking up carbon, helping us tackle climate change. But in the UK over 80% are damaged.

North Wales Wildlife Trust, together with the Wildlife Trusts across the UK, is campaigning to keep peat in bogs and not bags.
