Wetland loss is a controversial issue between environmentlist and anti-environmentalists. Over only a year, the United States lose more than 100,000 wetland acres alone. The U.S has also lost over half of its original wetlands and part of the reason was because of human activity. Due to such loss, environmental and socio-economic benefits are threatened, such as ground water quality and supply, shoreline erosion, floodwater storage, and trapping sediments. By restoring the wetland found in the Pullman area, we plan to raise the asthetic and recreational value the pond. Also, this wetland can help to decrease the threats to the benefits that the U.S receives from wetlands.
