Wetlands as Climate Protectors! Wetlands store vast amounts of carbon and act as natural buffers against storms and floods. Protecting them is one of the most effective climate solutions we already have. Spread the word to your Local Wetlands Champions to create awareness about wetlands and climate resilience. #WetlandsLocalChampions #Wetlandsmatter #ConventionOnWetlands
