Tomorrow MPs will debate the burning of peatland.

Burning peatland needs to stop now and our peatlands restored if UK Gov is serious about tackling the #ClimateEmergency.

It's crucial that MPs take a stand. Tag your MP to ask them to attend and back calls to #BanTheBurn

There are over 3bn tonnes of carbon stored in our peatlands, equivalent to all carbon stored in the forests of the UK, Germany and France put together.

It's the UK's rainforest, and we're watching it burn. #BanTheBurn

As well as stopping the burning of moorland, we need to restore all our peatland soils to a healthy state.

If we don't, emissions from the UK’s degraded peatlands may cancel out the carbon benefits of tree planting! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-53684047
