Explain how wetlands contribute to environmental health.

Hey there!

Wetlands contribute to environmental health, because it gives a lot of animals that need to live in the marsh, areas to survive. A lot of these are untampered with because they are national parks & no one dares to build anything back there because they are a very dangerous to build a house or other structures.

Hope I was able to help!

Wetlands are important features in the landscape that provide numerous beneficial services for people and for fish and wildlife. Some of these services, or functions, include protecting and improving water quality, providing fish and wildlife habitats, storing floodwaters and maintaining surface water flow during dry periods. These valuable functions are the result of the unique natural characteristics of wetlands.
