The Global Peatland Fund flyer

This the flyer of the Global Peatland Fund, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions by rehabilitating degraded peatlands – especially peatswamp rainforests in Southeast Asia. Peatland rehabilitation and conservation are extremely cost effective carbon mitigation options (US$7 to US$17 per tonne of CO2).

Advice to the UNFCCC Contracting Parties (COP 14, 2008)

This brief was used by the team of Wetlands International attending COP 14 in Poznan, Poland (December 2008). The aim is to advice delegations on the different issues on the agenda in different committees of the COP.

Poster: Peatland Degradation Fuels Climate Change

Poster created for the UNFCCC meetings to show that the global climate community is doing nothing to address the significant emissions from peatland loss.

About Wetlands International's main projects

This brochure (4 pages) presents the main projects in 2008 for which we look for support from donors: Green Coast, Wings Over Wetlands and the work on restoring the South-east Asian peatswamps.

Climate change and Wetlands leaflet
Leaflet of 2 pages, explaining the relevance of wetlands for climate change mitigation and adaptation.
Factsheet: Palm oil and tropical peatlands

Palm oil is a driving force behind the destruction of tropical peatlands by deforestation, soil degradation and fires. Decomposition of the degraded organic soils which cover 0.2% of the global land surface leads to 8% of the global CO2 emissions.
