Wetlands in Danger provides the reader with a unique overview of the state of the world's wetlands. The extensive atlas section, with maps showing their conservation status, is the result of a major mapping collaboration with WCMC and IUCN. Throughout the atlas, colourful feature spreads focus on wetland issues in each region. The book concludes with positive recommendations for the future of wetland, and their conservation.
There is today a growing awareness that many wetlands are more valuable in their natural, or only slightly modified state, than if drained, dyked or built upon. Past neglect of wetlands has meant that there is insufficient material available on policy guidance, planning techniques, or management methodologies for their conservation and sustainable use in different regions.
