Wetlands play a vital ecological role in water purification by filtering pollutants and excess nutrients from water. They act as natural sponges, absorbing runoff and mitigating the impacts of floods by slowing water flow. The vegetation in wetlands traps sediments, thus improving water quality and promoting biodiversity. This habitat supports various species, including fish, birds, and invertebrates, contributing to rich ecosystems. Conserving wetlands is crucial not only for their water purification capacities but also for their ability to provide flood protection, improve water supplies, and support wildlife habitats.
