UK's muddy saltmarshes vital to tackle climate change, report finds

UK's saltmarshes play a crucial role in combatting climate change by locking away greenhouse gases in mud layers, as revealed in a recent report by WWF. The charity is advocating for the formal recognition of these tidal habitats to incentivize restoration and protection efforts. The report, showcasing findings from a marshland in North-West England, highlights the importance of these unsung heroes in nature's fight against climate change and the potential benefits of adding them to the UK's official carbon inventory.
