Multifunctional wetlands – reality or utopia?

• The restoration and creation of wetlands is being discussed as a way to solve several societal crises. It can mitigate climate change by preventing greenhouse gas emissions, but also reduce eutrophication, prevent floods and droughts and favour biodiversity. However, a single wetland cannot fulfil all environmental requirements; a diversity of wetland types is needed, where the right wetland is put in the right place.
