泥炭地对于实现净零排放和自然恢复的环境要求至关重要。可持续泥炭地管理（SPM）可以帮助恢复，维护和增强泥炭地，以确保它们在提供多种生态系统效益方面发挥潜力。妇女政策特别秘书处在政策和实践中引起了极大的关注，但在这方面尚未尝试对法律和治理问题进行全面审查。本文以威尔士国家公园布雷孔东南角的一片深泥炭地为例。在此，划定法律和治理的界限表明，迫切需要修改这些制度，以促进有效的SPM。报告还揭示了可持续土地管理法律的框架方面的更广泛挑战，需要采取更根本的对策。
Peatlands are essential to environmental imperatives with respect to achieving net zero and nature recovery. Sustainable Peatland Management (SPM) can help to restore, maintain and enhance peatlands to ensure they meet their potential in delivering multiple ecosystem benefits. SPM has attracted a great deal of attention in policy and practice but there has been no attempt to carry out a comprehensive review of the law and governance issues in this context. This article does so with reference to an exemplar of an area of deep peat in the southeast corner of the Brecon Beacons National Park, in Wales. Mapping the boundaries of law and governance here reveals a pressing need to amend these systems to facilitate effective SPM. It also unearths broader challenges regarding the legal frameworks for sustainable land management that will require a more fundamental response.
