Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Peatlands Restoration and Rehabilitation: Discussion

Dr. Florence Renou-Wilson:

The simple answer is "Yes". The activity under the UNFCCC and the LULUCF is to account for all our drained and rewetted bogs. To clarify, we can only account for rewetted bog when we have accounted for all our drained bog in the first place. We must know where all our drained bogs are and how much is there so that we can start to account for the good guys. Only when one has the bad guys can one have the good guys.
