Preserving wetlands is essential in mitigating climate change due to their role as significant carbon sinks. Wetlands store large amounts of carbon in their soils and vegetation, helping to reduce greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. They also provide critical ecosystem services such as flood control, water purification, and habitat for wildlife. Protection and restoration of wetland areas can enhance their ability to sequester carbon while also increasing resilience against climate impacts. Thus, safeguarding wetlands is vital for both ecological health and climate mitigation efforts.
