VOLUNTEER CONSERVATION DAYS
The Climate Project Events
BMC Volunteers will be joining National Trust Rangers planting trees in the North York Moors National Park. This is part of a plan to increase tree cover of the National Park up to 25%. Benefits of tree planting include: carbon capture, improved soils, reducing erosion, water logging and flood risk downstream, increased bioversity of birds, mammals, insects and plants, shelter for livestock, and beneficial effect on the landscape. Planting trees will benefit nature, reduce flood risk, and help fight climate change.
The Climate Project Events
In association with Moors for the Future Partnership, BMC volunteers will be planting sphagnum moss in the Goyt Valley area of the Peak District, close to Buxton. Sphagnum moss is a key building block of peat and healthy blanket bog keeps the underlying peat banks safe. Sphagnum traps carbon dioxide and due to its water retention properties it also helps reduce flooding and improves water quality. Therefore protection and restoration of blanket bog is an important part of the fight against climate change.
