In this map of greenhouse gas emissions per hectare of peat, the Fens in the UK stand out as an angry red blob.
The Fens are a carbon bomb. To defuse it, we need to pressure its landowners, like the Church Commissioners.

Trees may look still and silent, but they’re engaged in a constant, complex dialogue—through air, soil, and even electricity.

Beautiful, wild old oaks.
But as usual in Ireland, unless something changes they're destined to die off. Just look at the ground layer: nothing but molinia grass.
Instead of paying farmers to look after these precious habitats, the state pays them to graze sheep, ensuring nothing else survives.

Watching the rain dripping off the branches of the small stand of oak trees near Ben Lettery reminded me of @irishrainforest.bsky.social description of his own forest in Kerry. The foothills of the Twelve Bens were once oak forests. I did collect some acorns, so these trees will live on.

Reform UK councillor slapped with a £40,000 fine for hiring an illegal worker. 🤔
So much for "taking back control", apparently the rule is: deport them… but only after we’ve squeezed some cheap labour out of them.
A masterclass in hypocrisy!
