House Bill 8204 defines peatlands as wetland ecosystems from accumulated decomposing plant materials in waterlogged conditions.“The conservation and restoration of peatlands sought to be enhanced under this Act shall be aimed at enabling the country to manage peatlands sustainably, taking into account their value as natural solutions to address climate change such as by functioning as carbon sinks,” said the bill.
