IMG_4507_gripped.jpg Boggy Moorland above Wet Sleddale that has had drainage ditches dug into the peat, known as gripping, to try and make the ground more suitable for sheep grazing. This is disastrous environmentally, causing a triple whammy of destruction. for a marginal gain in sheep farming, it degrades the moorland bog as a habitat for specialist plants and animals, it reduces the peat bogs ability to lock away and store carbon, and it greatly increases the flood risk downstream, as rain water drains straight off the land, rather than being taken up and released slowly by the peat and sphagnum moss.

366W4248_soil.jpg Crops growing in a field in lincolnshire UK. Soil stores large quantities of C02 which is released when farmers plough fields for planting. Looking back at the record of C02 in the atmosphere the first anthropomorphic affect appears way before the industrial revolution around 10,000 years ago when man first started ploughing to plant crops.

366W4250_drought.jpg soil that has dried out and cracked in a farmers field in lincolnshire due to drought. Growing crops is going to become more difficult or impossible in many parts of the world as climate change will make huge areas of the planet much drier leading to almost permanent drought conditions and desertification.
