Depuis 1970, la région méditerranéenne a perdu 50 % de ses terres humides naturelles et la situation ne fait que s’empirer. Ces terres constituent des habitats vitaux pour la faune et la flore locales. Elles contribuent également à amoindrir les effets des phénomènes météorologiques extrêmes, comme les inondations ou les tempêtes. Il est essentiel de les préserver et d’aider les zones côtières à lutter contre les impacts présents et futurs du changement climatique.
