Whether it's the bog, fen, swamp, or urban wetland, we love to get fluxy 😁
We're hosting a World Wetlands Day event at University of Waterloo tomorrow. But, as the official WWD2025 comes to an end, the Wetland Soils and Greenhouse Gas Exchange Lab wants to share this wetland ear worm. You'll be singing about wetlands all week long... youtu.be/X5bt_ZG1YBE
