Conserving peatlands sequesters carbon and supports local communities. One example: Minnesota’s Sax-Zim Bog generates an estimated $1.18 million in outdoor recreation annually, all while helping mitigate floods, purify drinking water, and more. pewtrsts.org/4jpTGNX

Once central to Hong Kong’s culture and coasts, pearl oysters were nearly lost to overharvesting and pollution. Now, #PewMarineFellow Dr. James Kar-Hei Fang is working to restore them—and revive a key part of the region’s marine and cultural legacy. pewtrsts.org/4eHRhxh

On the docks of Cordova, Alaska, familiar boats haul an unfamiliar harvest: golden ribbons of kelp. It’s seaweed, yes. But it’s also a lifeline—woven from science, tradition, and a deep love of place. pewtrsts.org/3IasrKl

The U.S. is home to some of the world’s most extensive peatlands. But over the past two centuries, they’ve declined significantly. Conserving these ecosystems helps people and nature alike. pewtrsts.org/4jpTGNX

Martu Rangers in Australia light cool-burn fires, track bilbies, and combine cultural stories with ecological data. When culture leads, conservation follows. More in Trust magazine. pewtrsts.org/449iUfg

Peatlands occupy just 1.2% of U.S. land but contain about 20% of the nation’s soil-stored carbon. Protecting them helps mitigate floods, reduce wildfire risk, and more. pewtrsts.org/4jpTGNX 📸Photograph by Charlie Reinertsen/Twolined Studio

The case for a moratorium on seabed mining is clear: 🔬The science isn't there ⚖️The rules aren't in place 💰The economics don't add up 🌍Equity isn't guaranteed Our ocean is too valuable and vulnerable to take that risk. It's time to press pause. #ISA30 pewtrsts.org/4jI2W03

Chile has just one park ranger for every 89,000 acres of protected area—much lower than recommended. A new @uaustraldechile program is educating park rangers and other professionals to help ensure marine protected areas do what they’re intended to. pewtrsts.org/4mWQ5Kb

37 countries are now calling for a moratorium or pause on deep-sea mining. The International Seabed Authority should heed growing calls for a pause and prioritize the environment over hasty decisions. The health of our ocean is at stake. #ISA30 pewtrsts.org/4jI2W03

The future of Alaska’s coast isn’t in boardrooms—it’s on boats, in processing sites, and in the hands of people who’ve lived there for generations. In Cordova, seaweed is fueling jobs, restoration, and real hope. pewtrsts.org/3IasrKl
