REWET

🌍Wetlands are more than ecosystems. For millennia, communities have lived with wetlands—fishing, farming, managing water, and passing down knowledge that kept them alive. 🫂

Protecting wetlands means protecting people, heritage, and wisdom—not just landscapes.

Happy World Wetlands Day 💧

Carbon balance in an abandoned peat extraction area influenced by spatial heterogeneity and vegetation development This study was conducted to determine greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes and assess the carbon cycle of the ecosystem at an abandoned peat extraction site in…

Our latest study explores the carbon budget of an abandoned peat extraction area in Estonia. Over two years of GHG flux data reveal the site is still a carbon source, but could shift to a carbon sink as vegetation recovers and water levels rise.

Europe’s land carbon sink declines, but its potential stays high Europe’s forests and land are absorbing less carbon than expected, putting the 2030 target for the sector at risk. But with the right policies and measures, the land use and forestry sector could…

Europe’s land carbon sink is down 30% in the past decade, risking 2030 climate targets. But the EU can still turn things around. Forests, peatlands, and soils remain powerful carbon allies if we invest, protect, and restore.

Rethinking green investment for Europe’s next chapter: a stakeholder’s vision As Europe faces growing security and trade challenges, the momentum behind sustainable policies, and especially green finance, has come under increasing pressure.

Green finance isn’t a luxury: it’s survival.
In her new Horizon interview, Sandrine Dixson-Declève calls for a reset: invest upstream, cut consumption, and stop separating people from the planet.
