Did you know that wetlands are one of Canada’s most imperiled and vital ecosystems? It is estimated that nearly 64% of the world’s wetlands have disappeared since 1990.
Wetlands provide several vital “ecosystem services” to humans, including improving water quality (through filtration), reducing the impacts of floods (by storing and slowly releasing water instead), and most importantly, providing vital habitat to fish and wildlife. However, wetlands continue to disappear both in Canada and worldwide.
Join Habitat Committee Member Chloe Hartley as she shares her knowledge wetlands, their importance and which plants are used for soil remediation!
There will be information about how humans play a role and learn about how we need invasive plant removal and vital planting to restore biodiversity and support the ecosystem.
