(38a) Land with high stocks of carbon in its soil or vegetation should also not be utilised for the development of other renewable energy projects such as the construction of wind turbines and their associated roads, including 'floating roads' and other infrastructure. The impact of such developments on peatland will inevitably lead to the drying out of the peat bog over large areas and the release of stored carbon into the atmosphere, leading to the formation of carbon dioxide.
