Wetlands near Moosehead Lake in Maine, USA

We’re flying over the wetlands of Maine in northeastern United States. Wetlands are an essential part of Maine's natural resources and play a crucial role in protecting healthy ecosystems. They filter our drinking water and provide a vital habitat for types of wildlife and vegetation. Wetlands also provide a natural barrier from storms, absorb flood waters and capture carbon from the atmosphere – all of which help to reduce the impact of climate change.
