Canada is responsible for ¼ of the world’s #Peatlands (or muskeg!), including some of the largest remaining high-integrity peatlands — such as the #HudsonBayLowland. This vast #peatland complex covers over 370,000 km2 — bigger than Germany! #WorldPeatlandsDay 2/13

Unconscionable for #ABgov to greenlight peat extraction on the lands of Dene Tha' First Nation during the ongoing climate emergency, on intact permafrost peatlands and critical caribou habitat. #PeatTwitter More on the Bistcho Lake subregional plan: https://t.co/wIIEWVvBsc
