Participants can "adopt" a local wetland by entering it into a Canada-wide registry database. The registry is a cumulative account of wetland protection resources for landowners, school and community groups. Participants register a wetland by filling in fields such as wetland description, wetland protection or restoration efforts, methods, results, and funding sources. Participants will be able to register on-line, by mail, fax or e-mail. By searching this registry, you will find a compendium of information for individuals interested in protecting wetlands in their communities.

Why should I participate?

    The wetland registry links communities across Canada. It provides a forum where people can share innovative wetland conservation methods and build on others' experiences. Stories of success or failure to preserve wetlands may help to save wetlands in Canada!
