A wetland is a distinct ecosystem that is inundated by water, either permanently or seasonally, where oxygen-free processes prevail. The primary factor that distinguishes wetlands from other land forms or water bodies is the characteristic vegetation of aquatic plants, adapted to the unique hydric soil.
Wetlands are the most effective carbon sinks on our planet. Happy #WorldWetlandsDay and let's take actions that #KeepWetlands #SDG14 #SDG15
