Wetlands are disappearing 🦆💧 According to @RamsarConv, nearly 90% of the world’s wetlands have been degraded since the 1700s, and we are losing wetlands three times faster than forests. 2 February is #WorldWetlandsDay #ActForWetlands worldwetlandsday.org

In this image, it is stated that 87% of our wetlands have been lost. Above you state that 85% have been lost. For the sake of clarity could you let us know which stat is the correct one pls.

@RamsarConv - I'm looking for decadal data for acres of wetlands in the conterminous U.S. I have dug up stuff from the 1700's, 1980, 2004, 2009 -but nothing consistent. Any data source tips you have? I'm piecemealing with what I find in Google searches.

Plant more trees in the wetlands to prevent erosion.
