Storyboard Text
- Did you hear about what is going on with the wetlands around the U.S.?
- Yeah, my science teacher was talking about it. Man, we have to protect it, but I don't understand why. Can you show me?
- See, one of the things people have done is to cause so much pollution.
- Since 1/3 of endangered animals only live in Wetlands, they may become extinct. Then it messes with the food chain.
- Oh I could see how that would be bad. What happens to the animals?
- Wetlands help prevent flooding, especially in homes. The plants and soil absorb and store water to reduce flooding and water runoff into places that would damage homes,.
- Well I assume you like your house. If we don't protect the wetlands, it could be in jeopardy.
- Why are we at my house now?
- How?
- Wow. That's awful! Anything else I should know as we walk through these wetlands?
- Yeah. I know how much you like hiking here. So do others. In fact, 160 million Americans spending $29.2 billion to observe, photograph, and feed wildlife in wetlands.
