Wetlands are so important for a variety of reasons, including wildlife habitat. It's one of the reasons I'm proud to be @SaveTheBayRI Riverkeeper, using my wetland science background to advocate for these unique resources.

🦜 Biodiversity shapes the natural system and plays a vital role in maintaining the health of our planet’s ecosystems. When there is a high level of biodiversity, it means that many different species of plants and animals are present and interacting with each other.

I put up DIY style Bird Safe Guelph exactly one year ago, and have had no fatal window collisions since. If you care about wild birds, if you feed them, if you enjoy thier song, please put up anti-strike measures.

Destroy, don’t dump! If you bought a moss ball for your aquarium destroy them by:
Freeze for at least 24 hours.
Boil for at least 1 full minute.
Submerge the moss ball in chlorine bleach or undiluted white vinegar for 20 minutes.
Seal and throw in the trash. @SaveTheBayRI

This is one of the reasons that @RhodeIslandDEM needs to specifically call out ORV use in wetlands as an alteration. Tires destabilize stream banks, compact soil, create erosion, and lead to water quality and habitat destruction.
