Wetlands are crucial centers of biodiversity. But in many parts of the country we are draining, plowing, and destroying wetlands. And when we do, they release greenhouse gasses. How can we protect wetlands and make that protection a core part of efforts to reduce emissions and increase biodiversity? 

This event is part of NFUniversity, which explores big topics, challenging questions & fresh thinking about the complex challenges facing farmers today.
