Wetlands can minimize the damage that is caused by storm and reduce the nutrient level in the water, wetland restoration is a better choice than building levees.

The wetlands can be defined as a water body which contains both fresh water and marine water which contains abundant amount of vegetation and fishes.

This will reduce the effect of flood and storm and decrease the nutrient level in water. Templet will support the idea of building wetland more than building levees.
