World Wetlands Day

World Wetlands Day

Wetland Restoration the theme for 2023 highlights the urgent need to prioritize wetland restoration. Nearly 90% of the world’s wetlands have been degraded since the 1700s, and we are losing wetlands three times faster than forests. Yet, wetlands are critically important ecosystems that contribute to biodiversity, climate mitigation and adaptation, freshwater availability, world economies and more.
