A new video entitled “Wetlands: keeping our planet alive and well” is now available for download in English, French and Spanish from the Ramsar website.

This short film highlights the importance of wetlands for people and their role as diverse ecosystems, providing a wealth of natural resources, such as food, timber and medicines. The film also shows the important role wetlands play in storing huge amounts of carbon dioxide and how they help to purify water for more than 3 billion people.

The video was first screened at the Ramsar COP10 in Changwon, Korea in November 2008 and was produced by Green.tv with generous financial support from the Korean city of Changwon.

To order a copy of the Ramsar DVD, please send your name and postal address to Ms. Nathalie Rizzotti at the Ramsar Secretariat (rizzotti@ramsar.org).
