Wetland Degradation | Vibepedia

Wetland degradation refers to the loss or deterioration of wetland ecosystems, which are among the most biologically diverse and vital components of our planet. Wetlands, found on every continent except Antarctica, provide crucial habitats for a wide range of aquatic and semi-aquatic plants and animals, and play a significant role in maintaining water quality. However, human activities have led to the degradation of wetlands, resulting in decreased water quality. The [[ramsar-convention|Ramsar Convention]] has recognized the importance of wetlands. With the help of organizations like the [[wildlife-conservation-society|Wildlife Conservation Society]] and the [[nature-conservancy|Nature Conservancy]], efforts are being made to protect and restore wetlands.
