| We are destroying our wetlands at a rate of 80,000 acres per year and as a result destroying the critical habitat of many plants, animals, fish and fowl.
Please help keep our wetlands from disappearing.
Our wetlands are too precious to lose. In addition to their intrinsic value, they improve the quality of water, protect against floods and provide sanctuary for an incredible array of biological diversity.
In fact, wetlands are some of the most biologically productive natural ecosystems in the world, comparable to tropical rain forests and coral reefs in their productivity and the diversity of species they support.
Officials and developers need to be educated that wetlands are not wastelands to be drained and converted to other uses. Act today to preserve these important natural resources.
