Transcript
Why is it important to protect the Everglades? So I'm a scientist that they're researching the Everglades, and the Everglades provides fresh water or drinking water to millions of people that live in surrounding areas. It stores large amounts of carbon, which helps to fight against climate change. It also has a high biodiversity of plant and animal life, and it also helps to protect the the inland from flooding and erosion.
