The Importance of Wetlands
Wetlands are important ecosystems on earth. They cover about 6% of the earth's land area, but they are home to about 40% of the world's plants and animals. Wetlands can be found in many places, from small ponds to large areas near rivers and lakes.
One of the most important jobs of wetlands is to clean water. Plants in wetlands help get rid of pollution and make the water clean. Wetlands can also help prevent floods. During heavy rains, wetlands store water like giant sponges. This helps reduce the risk of floods in nearby areas.
Wetlands are also home to many rare and endangered species. For example, the red-crowned crane lives in wetlands. Without wetlands, these animals would have no place to live and could die out.
However, wetlands are facing many problems. People are using wetland land for farms and buildings, which reduces the size of wetlands. Pollution from factories and homes also harms wetlands. We need to protect wetlands to keep our environment healthy.

Bees are small but very important insects. They help plants grow by carrying pollen from one flower to another. This process is called pollination. Without pollination, many plants cannot make fruit or seeds.
A bee has special hair on its body that collects pollen. When it lands on a flower, pollen sticks to its hair. Then, when the bee flies to another flower, some of the pollen falls off. This helps the new flower make seeds.
Bees live in groups called hives. Each hive has a queen bee, worker bees, and drone bees. Worker bees are the ones that collect pollen and make honey. They visit hundreds of flowers every day.
Bees are important to humans too. Many of the fruits and vegetables we eat, like apples and tomatoes, need bees to pollinate them. Without bees, we would have fewer foods to eat. We must protect bees and their homes.
