Admission is $4, and pro ceeds will benefit SOS’s educational project for local wetlands protec tion. SOS is a local non-profit or ganization dedicated to creating an in creased knowledge and concern about preserving the ecosystems which sus tain us. One of the most important ecosystems in the world is wetlands, which includes swamps, marshes, bogs, and other wet environments. Only recently have we begun to recognize wetlands as both essential and endangered. Wetlands are sites that have shallow water or saturated soil, accumulate plant organic materials that decom pose slowly, and support a variety of plants and animals adapted to the wet conditions. Wetlands are transitional zones where land and water interface; they are extremely diverse and pro ductive ecosystems. Wetlands serve many significant ecological functions. A wide variety of wildlife species depend on wetlands for feeding, nesting and breeding habitats. About one third of all plants and animals on the federal endangered or threatened species lists depend on wetlands for survival. Wetlands also function to control erosion and sedi ment and to store floodwaters. With the growth of urban areas, wetlands have become increasingly important for their capacity to im prove water quality and protect water supply. They provide unique educa tional and recreational opportunities and are aesthetically pleasing. These precious ecosystems are dis appearing at an alarming rate of 400,000 to 600,000 acres per year. Over half of the original wetlands in the United States have been lost. As we drain, ditch, and fill wetlands we threaten both wildlife and water. Locally, we contribute to the global and national decline of wetlands, because neither the city of Eugene nor Lane County has established a com prehensive management program. Local wetland areas are being rapid ly threatened and destroyed by inade quate protection. SOS has been work ing with local government to en courage protection of areas such as the Bertelson Slough and Valley River Wetlands. If you would like to get involved in efforts to protect local wetlands, or to gain further information, please con tact SOS at 541 Willamette, Suite 102, in Eugene, or call 484-2679, between 10 am-6 pm.
