World Wetlands Day

That this House highlights World Wetlands Day and the tremendous work that is carried out by the Wetlands Trust every day of the year; notes the importance of the fact that 40 per cent of all species live or breed in Wetlands and that peatlands store 30 per cent of land based carbon; and thanks all of those who tend to and enhance biodiversity and give the time and resources to make a real difference to the environment in this way.
