The values of wetlands and the services they provide have only recently gained human appreciation. Prior to the “environmental awakening” of the 1970s, wetlands were viewed by most people as unproductive, fetid “swamps” that were only useful for farming, dumping wastes, or draining and filling to expand buildable areas. This historic view produced devastating consequences for aquatic habitats. Wetlands have endured many different kinds of impacts including filling, flooding, draining, ditching, pollution, and restriction of tidal hydrology.
More and more private owners, builders, and government agencies -- are beginning to recognize the value of wetlands. Not only do wetlands support a wide variety of birds and other wildlife, they perform valuable hydrological functions, contribute to groundwater recharge, improve water quality, and offer recreational and economic benefits. Restoring our lost and degraded wetlands to their natural state is essential to ensure the health of America's watershed. |
