From what I heard, peat is a much bigger carbon sink. I mean, if you have multiple meter thick layers of practically pure carbon material covering the land, thats an enourmous amount. I have read something about 30% of carbon stored on 3% of the worlds land mass. The amazon on the contrary is only a very thin layer of organic soil with trees on top. Its still huge but only through its size, not by amout per area.
