Project Type Insight: Peatland Restoration Projects

About this paper:

In the UK alone, the Green Finance Institute found that damage to the natural environment is slowing the economy and could lead to an estimated 12% reduction in GDP in the years ahead, a more significant impact than the global financial crisis or COVID-19. To help combat this, Sylvera has pioneered leading techniques to improve the measurement of carbon stored in different sinks worldwide and bringing it to scale with software to bring more confidence. With the help of funding from Innovate UK and private and public partnerships, like CEH and Nattergal, we’re working to improve carbon measurement in the UK’s peatlands. This paper features insights from this work.
