preserving wetland
Wetlands are areas where water covers the soil, either permanently or seasonally. Examples include marshes, swamps, and bogs. They are rich in plants, animals, and microorganisms.
Importance of Wetlands
Biodiversity: Provide habitat for fish, birds, amphibians, and other wildlife.
Water Purification: Filter pollutants and improve water quality.
Flood Control: Absorb excess rainwater and reduce flooding.
Climate Regulation: Store carbon and help reduce global warming.
Livelihoods: Support fishing, farming, and tourism.
Ways to Preserve Wetlands
Stop Pollution: Avoid dumping chemicals, plastics, or sewage into wetlands.
Control Development: Prevent draining wetlands for construction or agriculture.
Plant Native Vegetation: Restore plants that naturally grow in wetlands.
Sustainable Use: Use resources like fish and reeds responsibly.
Educate Communities: Raise awareness about wetland importance.

Protecting the ozone layer
The ozone layer is a thin layer of gas high in the atmosphere that protects Earth from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun.
Without it, humans, animals, and plants would be exposed to dangerous levels of UV radiation.
Why the Ozone Layer Is Important
Prevents skin cancer and eye problems
Protects plants and crops
Keeps oceans safe by protecting plankton
Helps maintain Earth’s climate balance
What Damages the Ozone Layer?
Certain chemicals called CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) and HCFCs found in:
Old refrigerators
Air conditioners
Aerosol sprays
Foam packaging
These chemicals rise into the atmosphere and destroy ozone molecules.
How to Protect the Ozone Layer
Avoid products with CFCs: Use eco-friendly refrigerators, ACs, and sprays.
Properly dispose of old appliances that may contain harmful gases.
Use fewer chemicals and pesticides that release harmful vapours.
Support renewable energy like solar and wind (reduces pollution).
Plant trees, which help reduce overall environmental damage.
Spread awareness about ozone protection.
