The land could e.g. be used for #rewilding, incl. restoration of #forests & #peatland. Given that fermentation is around since a long time and can be… www.sciencealert.com/radical-over... +

  7. #Sundews' secret to survival: Study reveals how #CarnivorousPlants adapt to #microhabitat challenges phys.org/news/2025-01-sundews- paper: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wile

    "they alter the density of their leaf tentacles and the uptake of nitrogen from prey to thrive in different #microhabitats, such as mounds and hollows, within #peatland #ecosystems... #plants invest more in carnivorous traits, when nutrients from the #soil are limited and light availability is high"

  8. @AeonMach @jbenjamint I’d agree with you about not pinning our hopes on #hydrogen. But I used to live in the Gt Glen and saw the scale of environmental damage done by early pumped storage schemes - #LochNess/#LochMhor at #Foyers. But not only the early ones! The #GlenDoe scheme above #FtAugustus flooded a massive basin of #peatland supporting. good breeding populations of rare waders …dunlin, golden plover & greenshank… in the #Monadhliath
