China has more wetlands than any country in Asia, and 10 percent of the global total. They are crucial to life and environment -- and rapidly disappearing.
Four-time Pulitzer Center grantee, Sean Gallagher, will present his work for the Asia Society's China Green series on wetlands destruction and vulnerable waterways in China at the Woodrow Wilson Center in Washington, DC. Gallagher has spent years reporting on environmental degradation in China--from desertification to wetlands to forests. Following the screening, Zhao Zhong from Green Camel Bell will share the challenges and successes his NGO has experienced working to protect wetlands and reduce pollution in northern China.
