Wetlands Protection

Wetlands protection involves safeguarding areas of land saturated with water, either permanently or seasonally, such as marshes, swamps, and bogs. These ecosystems play a critical role in filtering water, providing wildlife habitat, and mitigating flooding by absorbing excess rainfall. Protecting wetlands helps preserve biodiversity and supports various plant and animal species. It also contributes to climate regulation and improves water quality. Laws and regulations often aim to limit development and pollution in these areas, ensuring that their ecological functions and benefits for communities and the environment are maintained for future generations.
