From wasteland to wetland. Why our coastal wetlands are vital for birds and people

17 million migratory birds visit the UK each year to visit our precious but threatened coastal wetlands.
On World Wetlands Day (February 2nd) learn how mud, water, and wildlife come together on the UK coastline to create a special place for wildlife, and a vital resource for society. Our coastal wetlands are a key resource for migratory birds, our frontline in the fight against climate change, and a vital space for people to connect with nature.
For too long, our coastal wetlands have been viewed as wastelands, this video might just change your mind.
