Critical wetlands mapped across City Region
Wetlands are critically important. They have been disappearing at an alarming rate, with 90% of UK wetlands lost in the last 100 years, making it one of our most threatened ecosystems.
We are proud to announce the launch of a crucial piece of work for Clyde Wetlands identifying locations where the creation, restoration or management of wetlands across our Region will help reverse habitat loss and restore wetland networks.
Wetlands provide a unique habitat for a diverse range of species but also deliver for climate and people. They provide natural flood management, protecting homes and businesses from flooding and are also one of the most effective carbon sinks on the planet. They also help improve our water quality.
Our Clyde Wetlands Opportunity Mapping Report, in partnership with NatureScot, Green Action Trust, Wildfowl & Wetland Trust, and Buglife Scotland, highlights wetland “opportunity mapping” analysis for the region and provides a framework for delivery.
