What would happen to wetlands if they were destroyed?

Answer 1

The scarring from excavation would do a number on the land itself.

Also, the plant life would grow back by the next warm season.

If you want a better answer, ask a more specific question that outlines the methods used to remove plant life, etc.

You are essentially asking what would happen if all of the hair on your body was shaved off at once. It would grow back and eventually look just the same as before.

Try to shave and let us know how it goes.

Answer 2

We wold not be able to breath as good, because Wetlands provide 45% oxygen

besides trees. If trees were destroyed we would die. Because trees provide the other 65% percent of oxygen. If wetlands like Swamps, Marshes, and Sloughs were destroyed, it would not have as much effect as Bogs, and Fens, because Swamps, Marshes, and Sloughs provide 15% percent and the other provide 20%.

Answer 3

If wetlands were destroyed, the loss of their natural functions would have several negative impacts. This could include increased flooding, loss of wildlife habitat, reduced water quality, and diminished protection from storm surges and erosion. Restoring wetlands is crucial to maintain their valuable ecosystem services.
