And spending the day getting the creative writing juices flowing with @clareshawpoet.bsky.social and Anna Chilvers from the The Book of Bogs. It's such an important skill for science communication!

Great opportunity to share early outputs from the Combs Moss Green Investment project at the @iucn-uk-peat.bsky.social conference! Lots of insightful and thought-provoking discussions with the wonderful peatland community @drelliott.net @moorsforthefuture.bsky.social
