Wetland loss
Wetlands are often undervalued, leading to their rapid decline; over a third have vanished globally since 1970, with serious consequences to biodiversity, water quality, climate, and coastal community safety. #WetTribe #TidetotheOcean #WetlandWednesday #WetlandLoss
More than half of wetlands in the lower 48 states are already gone, and the losses continue, with the declines documented in last year’s U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service report. #WetTribe #TidetotheOcean #WetlandWednesday #WetlandLoss #USFWS
