✅ Mangroves protecting shorelines from storms
✅ Peatlands sequestering carbon
✅ Wetlands filtering contaminated water
'Natural Water Infrastructure' is a vital #NaturebasedSolution .
Restoring ecosystems such as landscapes, wetlands and oceans can improve their productivity, promote #biodiversity and increase their capacity to meet society’s needs.
Help us shape the #RestorationDecade !
