    Over 95% of the UK’s peat bogs have become degraded or destroyed. This not only wipes out these rare ecosystems – wild areas which are home to a wealth of plants, birds and insects – but also rapidly increases our carbon emissions.

    This short online course takes around 30mins to complete and will explore in more detail:
    - The disastrous impacts of harvesting our natural peat landscapes.
    - How modern alternatives to peat are now plentiful and effective.
    - How to get the best out of peat-free products in your growing. 

    N.b. This course has been designed to work best on devices with larger screens, if you are using a smaller mobile device we would advise viewing the course in landscape orientation.
