[PCA] WEBINAR: Celebrating Wetlands in Wisconsin; May 5; 11:30am EDT

[Park, Margaret E]

Webinar date/time: Wednesday May 5, 2021; 11:30am-12:30pm EDT

Duration: 1 hour

What will you learn?
 Kick off your American Wetlands Month celebrations by learning about the variety of ways that the Wisconsin Wetlands Association (WWA) is working to raise the visibility of wetlands in their state. Wisconsin has lost half of its wetlands in the past 200 years, making those that remain more important than ever and making wetland restoration critical to solving Wisconsin's water challenges. WWA is creating tools to help people better understand how wetlands are key to providing cleaner water, flood storage, wildlife habitat, and other natural benefits. WWA is also raising the visibility of wetlands through two special designation programs: Wetland Gems® and Ramsar Convention on Wetlands of International Importance. Both programs illustrate the diversity and significance of wetlands found in Wisconsin and connect Wisconsinites with places where they can see spectacular high-quality wetlands right in their own state.
