    Conservationists work to rewet 23-square-mile NC peatland emitting 130,000 tons CO2 yearly

    2 outlets · first: robesonian.com Sustainability

    Machine summary A 23-square-mile North Carolina peatland releases 130,000 tons of CO2 each year after decades-old drainage. Conservationists are working to rewet it before it dries up or is destroyed. Peatlands are 3% of land and store one-third of Earth's CO2.

    1. A 23-square-mile (60 sq km) tract near Belhaven, North Carolina holds peat up to 15 feet (5 meters) deep.
    2. Fifty miles (80 km) of drainage ditches were dug decades ago for an abandoned farming venture, drying out the peatland.
    3. The degraded Belhaven peatland emits 130,000 tons of carbon dioxide per year.
    4. Peatlands cover only 3% of global land surface but store one-third of Earth's carbon dioxide, more than all forests combined.
    5. Degraded or burned peatlands globally contribute about 6% of annual greenhouse gas emissions from all sources.
