Peat distribution in the World
Year:
2009
Author:
Riccardo Pravettoni, UNEP/GRID-Arendal
Description:
Peatland soils store a large amount of carbon but there is a grave risk that much of this will be lost as peatland ecosystems worldwide are being converted for agriculture, plantations and bioenergy. Conservation and restoration of tropical peatlands should be considered a global priority.
