HABITAT

ALTERATION
TITLE:
Wetland Drainage for Urban Development
GROUP 2
 INTRODUCT
ION
Habitat Alteration is a shift in the land's
use or cover that affects nearby
ecosystems. Certain locations with the
climate and food supplies necessary for
survival are home to plants and animals.
The biggest threat to living space today
is habitat change, which can result in
habitat loss.
 CHALLENG
ES
• Loss of Biodiversity/
Extinction

• Water quality Degradation

• Flood Control and Storm

Surge Protection

• Habitat Destruction
SOLUTIONS
• Develop Regulations to Protect
Natural Habitats

• Adopt best management practices

• Implement restoration projects

• Educate on The Importance of

Biodiversity
OUTCOMES
• Biodiversity Conservation
• Improved Water Quality
• Enhanced Flood Control
• Biodiversity Protection and
Preservation
 CONCLUSION
In conclusion, wetlands that are being drained for agricultural and
urban development pose a serious threat to global biodiversity,
water quality, and flood control capacity. Adopting sustainable
land use practices, intensive biodiversity education, and strict
restrictions to conserve natural ecosystems are all necessary to
overcome this dilemma. It is imperative to undertake restoration
initiatives that try to improve the hydrology of wetlands and their
flood control mechanisms. Through the prioritization of wetlands
preservation and collaborative efforts, it is possible to protect
biodiversity, enhance water quality, and guarantee ecosystem
resilience, all of which are beneficial to human populations as
well as wildlife. ⁤
