Share if you think every day should be #WorldWetlandsDay. Without these ecosystems we would have more drought, less clean water, stronger coastal storm impacts, and biodiversity would be far far less interesting and beautiful. #mosstodon #lichensubscribe #wetlands #Climate

Yesterday was #WorldWetlandsDay! Many northern landscapes are covered by carbon-rich #wetlands, known as peatlands.

Due to #ClimateChange, forests 🌳 could outgrow 20% of peatlands, leading to a release of roughly 4% of European soil organic carbon.

Wetlands are among the best ecosystems to help fight #ClimateChange bc of their ability to sequester carbon. Unfortunately, they're rapidly being destroyed for agriculture & urban development. For #WorldWetlandsDay, here are 5 facts about these ecosystems. https://ci-intl.org/3YB9ZOb

Healthy wetlands have a crucial role to play in the fight against #globalwarming since they capture carbon.

Discover how coastal wetlands can act as nature based solutions. 🌎

RT @StefingerMdB: Im Kongobecken ist ein gigantischer CO2-Speicher akut bedroht. Öl- und Gasbohrungen könnten dazu führen, dass das größte tropische Torfmoor der Erde 🌍 trockenfällt und bis zu 32 Mrd. ⚠️ Tonnen #CO2 in die Atmosphäre gelangen. #TagDerFeuchtgebiete #WorldWetlandsDay

I went on a #beaver spotting walk for today's #WorldWetlandsDay.

Sadly they are having a tough time with local farmers who are spoiling a lot of their handiwork, but I was incredibly pleased to see some fresh undisturbed activity in the protected area by the river.

#WorldWetlandsDay this is the incredible Okavango Delta in #Botswana with its lush animal habitat. The Moremi Game Reserve occupies the east and central areas of the region. It is an exceptional example of the interaction between climatic, hydrological and biological processes. The Delta is home to some of the world's most endangered species of large mammal, such as the cheetah, white rhinoceros, black rhinoceros, African wild dog and lion. This was the view from the sky when I was there!

It's the #WorldWetlandsDay!
Let's #revive and #restore degraded #wetlands.

@RestoreTheDelta it’s an unrecognized tragedy that we’ve lost so many #wetlands! #WorldWetlandsDay

Happy #WorldWetlandsDay ! Make sure to pay a visit to a local wetland near you this week.

I just learned it's #WorldWetlandsDay! In early spring, roughly a million Sandhill Cranes gather along the Platte River to rest and refuel for their long migration north. The photo shows them roosting in the background, ready to rise at daybreak. They are ignoring the family of deer crossing the river. If a coyote had shown up instead...

It’s #WorldWetlandsDay and here are a couple of favourite places. On the left is Ynyslas reserve in the Dyfi biosphere, with its mudflats, sandbanks and saltmarsh. On the right is the boggy area alongside Afon Elan, near the edge of the dark sky park.
