Land management impacts on the Carbon Cycle in UK Blanket Peats [PDF]
, 2011 Peatlands occupy a mere 3 % of the world's land mass, but store up to one third of terrestrial carbon stocks. Peatlands are widely regarded as carbon sinks owing to their ability to sequester more carbon than is released.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Freshwater ecosystem restoration must be rapidly scaled up to address climate change and biodiversity loss, as reflected in the 2024 European Union (EU) Nature Restoration Regulation. Achieving national and international restoration targets is constrained by a persistent funding gap.

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.Abstract Carbon markets promote nature‐based solutions (NbS) as a means of advancing climate mitigation and biodiversity objectives. Credits from these activities frequently claim benefits beyond carbon. Yet, legal frameworks remain largely structured around carbon accounting, raising questions about how broader environmental outcomes are addressed in ...
