What is the significance of mosses in nature and human life?

Mosses, settling in meadows, in forests, cover the soil with a continuous carpet, making it difficult for air to enter it. This leads to acidification and waterlogging of soils. Leafy, especially sphagnum, mosses cover swamps with a solid carpet and, dying off, form peat, which is widely used by humans. Peat is used as fuel, fertilizer and raw material for industry. Peat is used to produce wood alcohol, carbolic acid, plastics, insulating tapes, resin and many other valuable materials.
