#447 Climate Change and Atmospheric Pollution

The potential impacts of climate change on upland landscapes are, as yet, poorly understood. Increases in temperature are likely to lead to greater decomposition of peat, the decline of bog and an increased risk of fire damage. The decomposition of peat is itself a major source of CO2 emissions which fuels climate change. Conversely, wetter conditions may lead to bog expansion but greater risks of erosion. The headlong race to enviromental meddling is mad when nature is struggeling to adapt anyway. This is why these balmy schemes produce either desert or infernoes.
