The importance of wetlands can not be measured with instruments or the human eye. The most important problems facing the Earth's wetlands are the loss of biological diversity, the loss of a purifying water source, and the loss of the ability to elevate floods.
Wetlands are a great source for flood resistance.
When there is a large rainstorm, the wetlands hold the capacity of the water to flow, and eventually release the water in distinct measures. As humans, we like to think about Nature's resources anthropocentrically . Humans view the wetlands as a source for there existence. The wetlands allow humans to view the beautiful scenery of a natural ecosystem, clean water for human and agricultural usage, and the many biological secrets that help humans successfully survive. The anthropocentric reasons rule over the security and well-being of the wetlands.
