Join the IPCC as a Teaching Friend of the Bog

The IPCC is campaigning for the conservation of Ireland's peatland heritage. Our work of conserving peatlands, lobbying, research and policy making is vital, and will succeed if there is better understanding of peatlands and environment issues.

That is why education is an essential part of the Save the Bogs Campaign: to make sure we are all, children and adults alike, better decision-makers for tomorrow. The IPCC's Education Programme has given priority to schools for this very reason. The education materials and training programmes we have produced provide teachers with all the resources needed to link bog studies in with the school curriculum. So turn your concern for the environment into action today.

Yes, I want to support the work of the Irish Peatland Conservation Council's Save the Bogs campaign by joining as a teaching member.
