Our FMA Area is 55% wetland - that's a lot of wetland and responsibility! I'm happy to share that I've joined @AlbertaPacific as a wetland ecologist!
Alberta-Pacific Forest Industries Inc.@AlbertaPacific

Wetlands play a vital role in the structure and function of our forests. @AlbertaPacific collaborates with various teams and partners to better understand, restore, protect, and minimize potential wetland disturbance. Learn more: bit.ly/2YQNdoF #WorldWetlandsDay2022

Wildfire smoke is stretching from Illinois to Italy. Hundreds of wildfires in Canada have already scorched twice as much land as what typically burns in an entire season, according to the Canadian Wildland Fire Information System. Get the view from space: bit.ly/3NTlQV6

2023 now is in first place for area burned in BC since 1950. Surprisingly, most of the fire season is ahead of us and we have already passed the recent record-breaking years of 2017 and 2018. wildfiresituation.nrs.gov.bc.ca/currentStatist…

By far the most asked question I've had at #CGU2023 is "how do you define or identify a swamp?". I'm still not sure, but after spending a year in them I just know. So of course I found a lovely little coniferous swamp in Banff!

This amazing figure from yesterday's #IPCC report shows the potential of different approaches to mitigate climate change It exposes two common misconceptions about 'natural climate solutions' 1/

Mosses make up most of the diversity in northern regions and often more than 50% of ecosystem productivity and carbon uptake from the atmosphere. Tiny superheroes. Where are my moss lovers?

3) Peat holds a lot of water, protecting not only peatlands but ENTIRE landscapes from drought. 4) While peat can burn, it protects ecosystems from severe burning. More peat = good 🔥 5) Peat promotes diversity & strange critters that make our world beautiful & interesting. 2/2

5 reasons why peat is powerful: 1) Peat is 50% carbon. That C was taken out of the atmosphere by plants and soils and put into ecological lockdown. Let's keep it there. 2) Peat archives everything from past climate to archeological records. Peat = information we need. 1/

@peatofmind Does this mean access roads should avoid shallow peatlands? or is it still better to avoid deep peatlands to avoid significant C impacts?
