World Wetlands Day
Each year on February 2nd, World Wetlands Day commemorates the founding of the Convention on Wetlands and raises concerns about the world's vanishing wetlands.
Wetlands are a distinct ecosystem that is flooded by water, either permanently or seasonally. wetlands include swamps, lagoons, coral reefs, and saltmarshes. Aquatic plants make wetlands different from other landforms or water bodies, according to the vegetation. Both aquatic and land animals are also available on Wetlands. On every continent, with the exception of Antarctica, wetlands exist.
Wetlands, for example, play a vital role in the world's ecosystem.
- Wave action is protecting our shores from wave action off our shores
- Flooding is reducing the impact of floods in the United States. Flooding is also reduced
- Absorbing pollutants
- Improving water quality is improving. Improving water quality is also improving
- Provides habitat for animals and plants. Providing habitats for animals and plants is essential
- Land and water are a vital link, and providing an important link between land and water is a good start
- More than one billion people live on wetlands for a living
- Up to 40% of the world's species live and breed in wetlands
Unfortunately, wetlands around the world are disappearing. In fact, wetlands are disappearing three times faster than forests, according to the author. Around 35% of the world's wetlands were lost between 1970 and 2015. Many reasons have caused Wetlands to be barred from certain areas. These include climate change, urbanization, and population increases. Pollution, unsustainable use, and invasive plants also threaten the survival of wetlands. wetlands are also endangered by pollution.
Despite the importance of wetlands, policymakers, and decision makers, many policymakers and decision makers underestimate wetlands. The world needs to be educated on the vital importance of this biodiverse ecosystem. Wetlands cover a larger area than Greenland. Of all the wetlands, the world protects only 13 to 18 percent of them.
